Flowers have an immediate impact on happiness. All participants expressed smiles upon receiving them, demonstrating delight & gratitude. This reaction was universal, occurring in all age groups…

Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature’s peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn.

Spring in Botanic Garden.

Wilton House Gardens, near Salisbury in Wiltshire.

This structure is the world famous Palladian Bridge spanning the Nadder River. The 9th Earl of Pembroke, Henry Herbert, was an architect who built the Palladian Bridge in 1737.

I chose this angle of the bridge to show off the intricate stone carvings on the underside of the roof of the bridge. This is very easy to miss and I have no doubt that most visitors to Wilton House are completely unaware of it’s presence.

HDR image: 5D Canon, mounted on sturdy Manfrotto tripod and shutter release used. The sun was shining virtually right into the lens just to the left of the bridge. I had to wait until clouds covered over the sun enough to take batches of images. In this batch of images I took nine exposures but from these this HDR image was produced using six exposures. Processed in Photomatix Pro & Photoshop.
