Are you sure that you are talking about the Pokolbin, Hunter Valley Gardens and not about paradise, Frank? lol!

Thanks for another very fine 'Down Under' image!

Regards, Cornelius.

These gardens look very beautiful.I like your perspective on this one.
I wish I had seen them when staying in Pokolbin. Lovely countryside and the wine's not bad either lol. We stayed at Peppers - loved it and the area and the people.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
