2016 03 03 - Castle Ashby Gardens

Keeping to colour in my main album. These are the gardens in Castle Ashby which is a stately home near where I live. Once you have walked through the formal gardens you are allowed to take dogs off the lead so of course Finlay loves it here!! We had a wonderful walk in this mornings sunshine!!

Best on black if you have time.

Many thanks for your lovely comments on yesterday's robin shots 2 of which made an appearance on the PP which is wonderful!!

Beautiful lighting and colours :)

[Maggiemae]

The light is beautiful here and probably comes in better when the trees are leafless! This is a good scene to remember!

Lovely scene

[Jane Pittenger]

I love the composition and perspective but I might decrease the exposure a tad. It's a bit hot to my eye

[Jerri]

such a beautiful scene. i love the spindles

[Marnie]

Beautiful tranquil scene Pam, but I too would decrease the exposure a tad.

[Louise & Ken]

Life must have been so grand! I can't imagine having so lovely a place to go for a stroll!

@jgpittenger @golftragic I was on my Kindle this morning when I read your comments re exposure and did agree with you. Sometimes when I upload to 365 I find the shot is darker than it looks on my laptop and often take it into Picmonaey to fit the exposure a bit. This one seems opposite - I am now looking on my laptop and it looks ok. No highlights are blown out. I will do as you suggest and take it into Picmonaey and take the exposure down a touch and see if you like it better.

[Elisabeth Sæter]

Very nice shot

[Marnie]

@pamknowler Good thinking 99.

[Stephanie Swift]

Love the green, the golden quality of the stone, and the lovely reflections.
