Texture and Inspiration

To gain access to the gardens you have to go through an underpass and this has been cut through this impressive rock.

I am sure the colours and layers will provide me with some inspiration.

This window is part of The Old Mill at Bodnant. I have no idea what the huge leaves are.

Back to the theme of shadows with this lichen (?) growing on a rock in a more formal area of the garden.

How could I leave these posts without returning to the fabulous laburnum? The plants are growing over a metal frame and as well as the rust which adorned the frame these shapes overhead appealed to me. Just a word of warning, in case you are not aware, despite its beauty the laburnum is very poisonous so if you have a plant in your garden keep it away from children and don't be tempted to eat the seedpods!
