Churchill's Chartwell

[Barr1e]

A quick visit on a sunny day (morning) as time was short. So much to see and fit in - a return visit is a must.

Chartwell taken in the large grounds






Pond with seat, where Churchill sat and fed his fish.


Churchill with Clementine -difficult getting the exposure right as the sun was full on the scene.




Overlooking the lake


Turkey frothing near the eye.


Geese with their goslings- just about to enter the water. How many can you count?

Re: Churchill's Chartwell

Very nicely done. I too use a slight under-exposure as I feel the colours come out better for doing so.

I recon on there being about 115% of a gaggle there

Hi Graham -

Thank you.

I'm using similar settings from the E-3 on the E-5 and results are pretty similar. I note Anne's E-30 presented some decent images from Chartwell.

Lovely natural saturation of the colours there

I counted 20 goslings - how about you?

Hi Ian -

Playing catch up as we have been in Kent for two weeks granddaughter sitting.

I thought there were 21.

Thanks for the comments.
