Don't you dare put me on a Christmas card!

For a brief moment,
Our eyes meet in confusion.
A feathers whisper.

What a lovely morning. One of the national Trust gardens near us, Sheffield Park, is opening early (which in NT terms means 9am) on certain days in December so that photographers (or anyone else) can wander round and take photos before the madding crowds arrive.

It was blissful to walk round and admire the beautiful views and trees un-marred by bright anoraks etc. I took some nice landscapey and foggy foggy photos, but this rather disgruntled looking robin won the day .....
