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.

Title: Attacking The Bean-Stalk
Location: At home
Camera: GoPro Hero 4 Silver
Extras: GoPro Pole / GoPro App
Notes: You may recall I was photographed hacking away at the Jasmine bush growing over my garden gate on Day #322. It was a big job, and I’ve had a couple of goes at it so far. Today I was determined to finish it off – so here we are, up a step ladder, chopping off the most wayward shoots, ready for the next growing season.

Title: In The Kyoto Garden
Location: Holland Park, London

Notes: I had a bit of time to kill in London today before and afternoon meeting, so I took a walk in Holland Park to find a few geocaches. I also spent some time in the Kyoto Garden, more research for my own Japanese garden project for next year.

Title: Centre Of Illumination
Location: Cambridgeshire
Camera: Canon EOS 5D MkIII / 17-40mm EF f/4 L USM
Extras: Tripod / Wireless Remote
Notes: As the nights are drawing in again, I thought I would get out my programmable light wand again and have a twirl. Victoria’s garden in suitably dark with not much pollution from street lights, so I set about making a shot for the current 52 Weeks theme, Illumination. You can just see my face lurking in the middle if you look closely!
