It was so lovely sitting out in the woods. Makes such a difference to my day - and my health!

That's one I've never seen. I bet Fiennes was wonderful.

Maybe the women didn't want to be photographed next to a convicted abuser? The misogyny in the White House in one image.

Stourhead is wonderful! Well worth a special trip.

Watch the waves crash, flecked with the new day.
Watch the firmament glowing above us.

Something to relish!
