That lady is well-rooted, nothing will change her opinion so don't bother trying because you won't get far.

Nor can she easily be repositioned for the shoot.  I like the formal evergreen framing in what is otherwise just as found.   The mown lawn to the left works well for me.  The lawn to the right connects vertically to the bridge and reeds at the top and to shadowed grass at the bottom; however, for me it does not transition smoothly to the either side.  My eye bounces off the sculpture and gets caught in the green tree.

Now that's what had been bothering me! Not my favourite genre of pix - brides, grooms, elephants and goblins.

Funnily enough just a few frames later on the same roll.   :)

Not technically elephants, I think, given the accompanying beast.

I've not been to Knebworth for ages. Thanks for the reminder.
