Description
Steps in a corner of the Edwardian garden at Hestercombe. All the hard landscaping was designed by Edwin Lutyens, the garden was laid out be Lutyens and Gertrude Jekyll between 1904 and 1906. All the walls, paving and steps are now Grade 1 listed. Some pictures of the gardens to follow over the next few days.

Just a couple suggestions.... since the sky is washed out and there is an unwanted person in the pic, I would crop it right there at the top of the center bush and at the bottom taking out the small patch of grass. This would focus your attention on the stairs itself and all the beautiful vegetation growing there. If you have a program that you can use to up the saturation of the colors, it would pull some of the pinks and purples out too. It's a very beautiful place!

I can see the merit of bentchick's suggestions to focus attention on the steps, but I like the line of the wall and wouldn't want to lose it. For that same reason I might cut and paste out the lady. Beautiful place and capture! Wonderful detail! I love the sprinkling of flowers. I looked up listing on the Internet. Very interesting. I wish we did more of that over here on this side of the pond. Of course the criteria of being 'old' would have to be changed to 'oldish' in most cases.
