On a recent hiking trip in Wales,  I was fortunate to drop by this magnificent medieval fortress of the Welsh Marches.

Croquet anyone??

Despite the heavily overcast weather and the lack of a tripod, I was able to use the rock solid shoulder of my  hiking companion to shoot these rather technical shots.

A walk through this scent garden was like a stroll through a perfume factory. Keats must have had this place in mind when he penned, “Oh season of mists and mellow fruitfulness!”

Despite the limitations  of equipment, I think the shots turned out quite nicely. What do you think?
