And what a fairy tale wedding that would be! I agree with you about the view through the daffys. It makes a great contrast piece as between the old and the new. Lively composition!

A beautiful view through the lovely spring flowers. Everything looks great! Always a nice perspective from you, Jen. I wouldn't mind attending a wedding there, that's for certain.

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??

That's very kind of you to ask Jen but I don't think Mrs Braces would be very happy about it! LOL Wonderful,clear well focused picture with loads of detail and colour.

My mind (what little there is) keeps wanting to move these flowers over to the right a bit. To me that would be a better balance of the image. You must have snapped this with a wide angle. Great work

It would be cool to get married there! Maybe we'll have to put it on a future anniversary destination! I love the new life of the daffodils contrasted with the old castle.
