"Haworth front garden"

Comments

I spent my first thirty years in the UK and the last 51 in New Zealand.I still enjoy visiting the UK and come as a visitor with some "prior knowledge". Yorkshire is a favoured spot because I do have family living there. but I have seen more of England, Ireland Wales and Scotland since living here in NZ.. I haven't seen all of NZ yet - but quite a lot considering - and probably more than many home bred Kiwis. This subject just caught my eyes and had to be recorded.. The line and wash technique suited my mood.
