Chinese Lanterns.

Had to take the car in for its annual service and M.O.T. this morning; it’s a process that involves a putting a bike on the back of the car for transport home, and then there’s the reverse process.
I came home via the Chinese Lanterns in Mbra; it seems that there have been problems with small children and so the exhibits are surrounded by defensive barriers, they some-what restricte the possible viewpoints but do force some thought to produce acceptable compositions.

Here is “The Horse and His Soldier,” I’m afraid I had to edit out the horses tail as Mrs TD said it looked extremely rude; I think I’d go for “moderately,” but I wasn’t going to argue the point. (There is a C.S.Lewis "Narnia" book with a similar title, Jnr was sick over it as a small boy and part of the cover was, consequently, removed; the book was henceforth known as "The Horse and His."

I liked the perspective of the “Soldiers in Line” forced on me by the distance and the resultant long lens.

I've just posted yesterday's "Cyclamen."
