Nice! At first glance, this reminded me of photos of Monet in his garden – perhaps it’s the elderly gent in a hat and old-fashioned-looking suit.
Haha… I shall have to tell the OH that. Maybe I’ll leave out the ‘elderly’ part 😀
Oops. No doubt it was the Monet association that prompted ‘elderly’.
No he IS elderly, just doesn’t like to be reminded 😉
ha ha!
Wonderful on so many levels Jude. I love the contrasts created within the foliage and your garden photographer harkens back to a time long past. Magnificent!
Thank you Lisa – glad you find it worthy of your challenge. I must admit it took some thinking about, but when I saw this I felt it was just right.
It is perfect!
This photo could have been taken a century ago couldn’t it? A nice shot and today promises to be even warmer and sunnier, enjoy 🙂
Just managed to catch him in mid stride and the black and white conversion always makes photos look timeless to me. High cloud and breezy here at the moment, but it might improve 🙂
What a beautiful black and white photo! Love the setting, Jude!
We only nipped in for a quick stroll after doing some chores, the shape of this tree in white blossom is really nice.
The shape of his hat and his pose makes me think it was taken quite a few decades ago 🙂 Beautiful photo, Jude. Thank you for joining in.
Thank you Paula 🙂
What a great shot. Beautiful garden and that man adds great feeling to it. And I agree with Lucid a Gypsy – it definitely has a vintage feel too.
Black and white always feels vintage to me, I guess because I grew up looking at black and white photos.
Like all the others, I get the vintage feel from this shot. If had been holding an old camera, it could have been taken before WW2.
Regards as always, Pete. x
Thanks Pete. The hat helps with this image I think. Should have given him my camera to hold. But then I couldn’t have taken the shot.
A really timeless feel to this image, Jude. Love it. 🙂
Nice, Jude! It looks like spring is in the air. And nostalgia too. 🙂
Spring is definitely springing Cathy. I’ll be over to yours soon! How’s the demolition going?
