Hi Bev,
Apparently many TL members with the same idea today, white buildings and green gardens :-)
This is a fine composition, lush green and the bush on the left act as a nice natural frame. The sky is a bit dull though, adjusting the highlights and contrast might improve this already nice picture. Made a WS to show what I mean. Anyway a fine attractive picture of this wonderful building and it's garden.

Hi Beverley

The diagonal axis lines add superb dynamism. Good sharpness, colour & framing, in this well manicured garden. Tfs, & have a great week!

Hi Bev,

stunning! high maintenance gardens indeed, all this artistic work with the green curves and lines and flowers.. must be taking them hours everyday to keep it that neat! excellent capture with fine lighting and vivid colors and good choice to use part of the tree as frame and the frame itself.. charming presentation Bev..

have a nice Sunday

Hi Beverley,
A nice garden and a beautiful house!
But in this case there is a graphical design of the garden and your title suites exactly to the composition.
A excellent presentation with a amazing POV and an ample DOF in fine sharpness.
Lighting is marvelous and definition is to the maximum.
A very clean presentation in an elegant frame!
Well done,

Francis Xavier

Hello Beverley,
Beautiful garden, well made symmetrical crop or composition. The geometric shapes are well seen, good representation. Creative shot with clear, sharp colours. Best regards Siegfried

Hi Beverly
A good POV inthat the lines are all on the diagonal. It has more appeal that way I feel.

Bonjour Bev,
Quel dommage... j'habite pas très loin de là... on aurait pu se croiser !
toi qui aime les fleurs, j'espère que tu auras fait une pause au château de Chaumont sur Loire et son festival des jardins, c'est une pure merveille
En tout cas, très bon choix pour ton POV qui nous permet d'apprécier autant le potager que le château de Villandry
Bonne journée

Bonjour Beverley,

Tu t'en sors plutôt pas mal avec ton portable et la photo est d'excellente qualité!!!
Joli jardin à la française façon Lenôtre ce château est très agréable; il ne reste plus qu'à prendre une toile d'artiste pour en faire une jolie toile!!!!
Amitiés

dear Beverley,
lines and colors make really artistic and geometric space in this garden.
and your composition makes beautiful perspective in this picture.
light and colors are perfect and excellent,
maybe the time is passing gracefully there.
thank you,

A lovely view Bev and nice and sharp.. It doesn't seem to me that you've used a polariser here though. It would really bring the blue sky out far more clearly with a deeper blue - and of course the clouds would stand out brilliantly.
