A Rose Garden
A new concept in garden photography, inspired by a summer of hot, dry days, trying to photograph beautiful places in unsuitable weather. Why won’t it rain? This growing set of pictures spans a wide variety of locations, from private gardens to stately homes, all drenched in water from a home-made rain machine or a hose. The wetter the better.
