Dunsborough Park is a privately owned manor house in Ripley, Surrey. It opens the gardens to the public a handful of times a year. There was not much colour on display as they are resting the Dutch garden which should normally be full of tulips, but it was fun exploring the grounds and especially the Italian bridge. It is on the market if anyone has a spare £17m burning a hole in their back pocket.

First things first: if I had 17M in my pocket I'd buy a K-1 + 31mm before buying such a manor house. I might even splurge for a 43mm.

Nice set, especially the last one - the framing makes me feel the bridge moving under my feet. Great colours throughout, too.

Nice set Peter - as Sry says, the framing of last one gives a great impact

Very nice Peter... 1,2 and 5 for me... quite an otherworldly feel to them... hidden kingdom kind of a thing...

Thanks Bill. I am glad you like the first one. On other sites where I have posted it I have not had the comments I was expecting. To me it is the stand out image. Perhaps I did not brighten it enough in pp. I exposed specifically to avoid blowing out the sky and had to bring out the dark tones in raw conversion.
