Good morning Laurraine,
a very nice front garden idyll. I like very white birch trunks and white garden fences. Congratulations on this beautiful recording.

Like the limited palette. Have you tried it as a B/W? Like the other two I missed too. Nicely framed porch and lovely little puffs of cloud.

The pickets have an angelic glow. Can fences go to heaven?

Claudia from Illinois, United States
I love Birch trees. We have two in our yard, one like this one here and one called a River Birch. Lovely image with all the touches of white from the bark to the picket fence to the hydrangeas. I'm convinced you live in a very quaint town--somewhere I'd like to live. :)

@Claudia: Thanks very much Claudia, it's a very sweet town, unfortunately to make place for new people, new housing projects a lot of charming view has been cut down, which is a shame, although I understand the housing shortage, and everyone should have a chance to have a home, but my heart bleeds :)
Viewfinder from Bradenton, FL, United States

I really like birch trees, just something about the way they glow in sunlight, and what a nice study of green and white in this photo, nice one Lorraine.

I guess one tree got "straightened out," a lesson to the others there....
