The Arboretum just outside Bristol is somewhere I have been wanting to visit ever since finding out about it's existence given that it is such a spectacle of natural beauty and so near by it seems silly not to pay a visit at least once, and what better time of year than Autumn when all the colours of the leaves flare up, a last spectacle before they inevitably die. One hindrance however is that the Arboretum is not the cheapest of attractions, at £9 a head you have to be prepared to make your moneys worth while there.
However last Sunday for whatever reason at around 4pm, a comfortable hour and a half before sunset, there was absolutely no one kindly waiting to part me from my hard earned cash ... Result!
And then things just went from good to better ...
And then better still ...
All in all a very successful trip. We were not there for a very long time but the time that was spent there was worth every penny we didn't pay!
The Arboretum! I love that place! Beautiful photos - it is such a fun, rich place to photograph - good work Mr. Currer!
