It is cold and its winter…. so I thought that a colourful Spring image might just warm us up. So here we have a great display of Orange and Pink Rhododendrons on a warm Spring day….. Days that cannot be that far away now.
My Idea for Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge this week.

What a beautiful rhododendron garden Thanks David. 😀
Gorgeous.
Oh my… spring colours. Thank you.
Obviously some way off yet
That is a gorgeous garden path. Where is it?
I did a blog a couple of years ago that will tell you all about these gardens (looking at the archive copy it seems a little out of format but still works) So here is the link to that blog hope you like;- https://davidoakesimages.wordpress.com/2012/05/17/rhododendron-time-in-the-derwent-valley/
Thanks.
