Nice shots but is that Dougal floating down the river?

Re: A Few from Sissinghurst Gardens

Really like #1, the shape makes it seem quite different, it almost looks dangerous!

Re: A Few from Sissinghurst Gardens

I like the spoke-like composition of #1, almost like the background could be another wheel or cog in the same machine.

Nice and sharp too, all of them.


I think it's a giant loofah in #3
Miss Kochanski has one just like it.

Can't work out what it was that loofah. We wondered whether it was setup to attract some form of wildlife. All pics taken handheld with the 18-70 DX kit lens. Starting to make me wonder whether I needed to buy the tamron 90mm today
