Not a great shot, but this gent was obviously enjoying a special moment & I didn't want to disturb him too much.
This is at Osterley Park. A stately home close to where I live.
I have a moral dilemma with stately houses. I love their splendour, but I'm aware their owners often got the money to build them, directly or indirectly, from the exploitation of others less fortunate, at home & overseas.
I like that Osterley has become a place where local people of all backgrounds come to relax. Some of them maybe the descendants of those whose labour paid for such estates originally.
