Technically, this is very well done, Eve. Composition is great, lighting and focus are perfect. Now, I can say WOW!! A small part of a garden ... I can't wait to see more. This is beautiful. Those leaves on the roof of the gazebo must be pretty large. And I really like the different shades and hues of green in here. I'll be taking honey in my tea, thank you! :))
What a lovely place for a spot of tea and fine conversation! A beautiful garden and well maintained. Thank you for showing us this garden, Lyn. You shot takes in quite a bit of this luxurious greenery.
I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't and die to find out there is.

Someone has excellent gardening skills and a find eye for beauty and elegance. How lucky you are to be an acquaintance of such a talented person. I hope you have a few more of this garden stashed away in a file somewhere to show us. It's the stuff of dreams for a scratch gardner like myself. You've done a superb job of composing and presenting this shot. :)PJ
Oh my goodness! What a garden!! Can you introduce us to your friends? This looks like a piece of the Garden of Eden. Wonderfully composed and presented to us here.
All of earth is crammed with heaven And every bush aflame with God But only those who see take off their shoes. - Elizabeth Barrett Browning<p>

Good Lord LynEve ... What a wonderful image and what a fabulous setting to relax in. I had no idea you were chummy with the Prime Minister. Tell her I was asking for her. :o)
What a nifty gazebo with that canopy of leaves. I hope your friend has a bunch of gardeners to help with the pruning and trimming that place would require to be so perfectly maintained. This is just a small part, eh? Are you sure it is not the National Botanical Garden?
