Ooh, so lovely! I love dawn redwood. One of my favorite trees.

I don't think I've ever been to Stourhead so late in the year before, so this is the first time I've seen the Dawn Redwood needles turning to gold. What a strange magical tree it is!

What a lovely set of photos. Beautiful! We had a dawn redwood planted in our yard when we lived in Washington State.
The one photo you have with the bridge is familiar to me, I think I used a similar photo for wallpaper on my laptop at one time.

Thanks! I love dawn redwoods and larches - there's something magical about a deciduous conifer...

Yes, that view of the bridge at Stourhead is so famous - I don't think anyone can resist photographing it.

Picture-postcard views, all of them!

It is such a fabulous garden for photography - those eighteenth century garden designers certainly knew how to create wonderful vistas...
