More Maple

Continuing the idea of bringing the overpowering ( already- so early in the summer too !) dark purple of the huge copper beech nearby down into the garden so the eye stays anchored low and moves around..... here are some shots in and around that lovely dissected purple maple by the pond . Note the stone meditator by teh far pond..... the bamboo brought in its pot from my cottage in Blakesley, the tree paeony to its left and the green primrose newly transplanted to under the maple. They will figure again! The overall shot is taken from the bench over by the hedge........ more to follow.. loading one at a time now !!
