Springtime Photo favourites

Just thought I'd share a few of my favourite photos that I've taken over the last couple of weeks, at National Trust properties Lacock Abbey and Kingston Lacy gardens.

A couple of bee photos to start, lovely to see the sunshine bringing out them out to find nectar.

I love the textures in this photo of moss on the very impressive Wisteria tree trunk at NT Kingston Lacy.

Some lovely spring flower pics

And finally some gorgeous Camellia Flowers from the impressive collection at NT Kingston Lacy, They look just great at this time of year.
