About When I were a lad a dutiful husband took his wife out to dinner at least twice a year ~ once on her birthday and then again on their wedding aniversary?

So I married Carole on her birthday!!! And tonight's the night, so we're off out for our annual dinner!!!

(Only joking! Before I get sackfuls of hate-mail, I actually take her out the full twice!!)

Have a good Sunday,

Chris

P.S. This was a fabulous place!!!

picture postcard perfect Chris - the colour variety in the foreground is superb, enhanced by the saturation you've achieved.

the position in the frame of the castle is spot oin with the path making a perfect leading line.

now where's the aDDRESS of those biscuit tin maufacturers?

Ade

PS - beware of the trees though - you may well see this is you get unlucky....

Wow...a fabulous place AND a fabulous image. I'm looking hard and trying to find something to critique...but it seems pretty close to perfect to me....Ahhh found it! Next time tell the gardener to clip off the dead bloom on the iris in the front! ;-) ...just kidding!
Hope you and your wife have a great birthday/anniversary dinner!

Vintage Spracklen! It has all the marks we've come to expect from you... a good eye for colour and composition, and technical excellence. I'm praising it when I say "a perfect postcard." I think you should offer your photos for use on the publicity material for these places. I've never seen better! (that would be for a modest price, of course)

I like the way you've used the path to lead the eye to the Citadel in the End of the image.

Happy anniversary Chris

This is wonderful composition with the path surrounded by flowers leading up to the castle. I hope you didn't pick a big bouquet for Carole's birthday :-) Since you are taking her to dinner you can buy her a well deserved posey too! Best wishes and congratulation to Carole and to you! Best wishes, Larry

Hi Chris.... Happy anniversary my friend and tell your wife Happy birthday.
As usual, a wonderful scenery that I don't know how do you managed to get this clarity and sharpness of the details.
Happy anniversary once again Chris, my regards,
Khaled.
