Wisley RHS Garden

A year or two ago we went to the Butterfly house at Wisley in Surrey, but it was the middle of the winter and freezing cold, so we didn't really look around properly and at the time said we would go back during the summer and on Monday we finally we did.

Wisley belongs to the Royal Horticultural Society and is a huge (and I mean HUGE) open space boasting many collections of beautiful plants, flowers and a huge 'Fruit Field'. There is also a 'Garden under glass' which at certain times of the year houses their butterflies. If you're like me and love taking photos of flowers, then you will love this place. If you're not but would still like somewhere pretty to visit this is a place I would definitely recommend because it is absolutely beautiful!

I took lots of photos while we were there and thought I would share some of them with you.

Photography

Creative hobbies for me have become something I don't really tend to enjoy, I always end up unhappy with the results which leave me wishing I hadn't started in the first place (I guess one of the downfalls of being a perfectionist is always being frustrated with everything you do). Photography though, is something that I enjoy doing and I enjoy the end results. In particular I like how photography and people - through their pictures - seem to pick up on the little things that I think would usually go unnoticed.

Anyway, I thought I would share a couple of my old photos with you (you can click on them if you want to see them a little bit bigger). I am in no way and in no way claim to be a professional.. I take pictures because I enjoy taking them, nothing else.
