I was going to photograph azaleas and rhododendrons near Coniston this afternoon but ended up walking to Rydal Hall and finding a blip among the flowers there instead. Long story so I won’t attempt to explain here.

Some of you know me by now . . . if there’s a photo with people in that’s the one likely to be the main image. For close ups and other bits from Rydal there’s an extra.

Coffee and cake were enjoyed in the tea room.
