Here, Paul will discuss and show some of his photography.
Biddulph Grange Garden
The gardens at Biddulph Grange Gardens, a National Trust property, have two displays of interest to me: The Stumpery (which I understand was the first ever created) and the Dahlias (when in flower). Here are some views from a visit earlier this year:

Next are some views of the stumpery – this is a display of old tree stumps that are inverted to show the patterns and architecture of the roots. Ferns and other plants are set amongst the roots:

Finally, a nice area is the Lime Avenue to the side of the garden:

This is a place we visit several times a year – it is interesting to see how the garden changes through the year.

I am an amateur photographer whose photography is mostly of gardens, nature and the rural environment. My specialities are close-ups, panoramic views, or a combination of both that I call 'Nearscapes'. I work mostly for my own interest having closed my business PM Studios Ltd.
