The Blackbird and the Statue

The Blackbird and the Statue

The garden in the grounds of "The Old Vicarage" in the village of Grantchester. The property used to be the lodging place of the English poet, Rupert Brooke. The property now belongs to the author, ploitician and ex-jailbird, Jeffrey Archer !

I took this from some distance away (taken through the railings) on maximum zoom of 300 mm.
I had to do some work on the image because of incorrect settings (exposure: +5/3 EV) and unfortunately the blackbird is slightly out of focus.

Japanese in an English Garden - Time for Tea in an English Orchard

A group of young Japanese tourists enjoy some Eglish tea in an English country Garden.

The Grantchester Group

This avant-garde group of intellectuals would pontificate over a cup of tea in this old English orchard in the village of Grantchester near the university city of Cambridge...

Rupert Brooke
Bertrand Russell
E.M. Forster
Maynard Keynes
Ludwig Wittgenstein
Virginia Woolf
Augustus John

Virgina Woolf dubbed this group, "The Neo-Pagans"

The picture quality is poor due to accidentally having incorrect camera settings
e.g. Exposure Bias +5/3 EV !
