We went here after visiting the Camera Fair at Dunstall Park. Superb weather today.

Sometimes I take my own advice (not often, it might become a habit) and today I was using a sturdy tripod for all my shots. It makes a big difference.

John

Did you have to wait long to get a clear view without any other visitors ? I find one needs patience when visiting places such as these.

There was hardly a soul in the place today. Those who were there tended to try to keep out of the way of the photographer - perhaps they thought I was doing a job for English Heritage.

This is definately not an English Heritage property then

Nice shot John, the only criticism I have is the overhanging branches on the left, I was once told never to do this unless you include the tree thats holding them up however I think this pic just shows rules are made to be broken as the branches fill an area of otherwise blank sky and balance those clouds on the right. Nice exposre too.

Actually, it is.....we were in both National Trust and EH properties with tripods and nobody bothered at all.

Moseley Old Hall was great because a peacock came and posed in front of us and gave us a nice display from all sides, right in front of our tripods. Very considerate of it and I'll post that one later. All I did was "miaow" to it, goodness knows what I was saying....
Best regards, John
