Description

It was a beautiful early autumn day and the low sun created extensive shadows as we explored the garden. These three seats were in a garden room made of hornbeam pergolas and I spent some time trying to avoid having the sun in the shot. But then I realised that part of the magical light in this space was the way the sun broke through the ‘walls’ and so decided the sun needed to be included. The light was hypnotising - combined with the curves created artificially but fleshed out by nature. I made lengthy efforts to find the right angle and position for the sun (in or out of the frame) and then I had to be patient to wait for the scene to be tranquil; there were so many merry children enjoying the space!
