Title: Winter Branches
Location: Hylands Park, Chelmsford
Camera: Canon EOS 100D / 18-135mm EF-S f3.5-5.6 IS STM
Extras: Self-Timer
Notes: I took a break from decorating this afternoon to take some books I had sorted out to the Second Hand Bookshop at Hylands Park. I also caught a lovely sunset and had time for a cup of tea a slice of delicious apple cake. The current 52 Weeks theme is Trees With No Leaves – so I also found a suitable spot for that one too.

Title: Down Among The Triffids
Location: RHS Hyde Hall, Rettenden
Camera: GoPro Hero 4 Silver
Extras: GoPro Pole / GoPro App
Notes: Encouraged by the promise of a sunny day, I took off to visit Hyde Hall gardens. I had a lovely wander around the grounds, making the most of the balmy weather. There isn’t a lot of colour left in my garden by this time of year, but I managed to find some here – the Chinese Lanterns were beginning to go to seed, but I love their bright vibrant orange against the blue sky. Perfect for Treasure Hunt Theme #39 – A Colourful Garden.
