After the street photography day in Norwich I drove 40 miles back home and parked up on the car park of The Anvil, a pub in the country for the night and had place and chips and a few pints of Adnams Broadside.
Mrs wall asked me how long I would be at Houghton Hall and I said not long, but I could have stayed weeks. So much to point my camera at…
A shared line?
The locals call this Houghton ‘new’ since at some point previously the houses were in a different place. The story goes that they were nearer to the hall but spoiled the view of the church for the owner of the hall
There was a telephone number on the phone, so I rang it from my mobile and the public phone rang! I wondered if the thistles were tempted to answer…
The area is still a working farm
but must make a packet from visitors
First view, has anyone ever failed to be impressed?
I’d be happy to live in the stables, no horses there though
the paying people
I looked afterwards, and wished I’d asked him what had caught his attention
must bring my daughter to see all this horsey stuff
the stables made a great venue for an art show, although I was so excited by the wood I forgot to look at the art
calming
our own post box darling. I posted something to myself, it has not arrived yet!
the driver waited
I tiptoed around the otherside to get this shot
touching the Henry Moore
Henry Moore ‘aliens’. I thought so anyway
I don’t think he was the current owner
following the crowds
Street Photography in the hall
Walpole, the first govener. We are about to get Boris!
The family snapshots
wow
remember the lady from yesterday who was made an associate of the RPS? This is Liz associating with her husband and Henry Moore. They know David Jordan.
I just want to lay down for a while, too many books to be read
Is this ‘Women’ by Henry Moore……will the boss of the RPS Creative Eye group still talk to me after asking such a question? 🙂
