A thought for your day, with my good wishes …

And the day came when the risk to  remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.

Don’t fly too close to the sun ... “Icarus Rising II”, by Nicola Godden and now on display at Beaulieu #sculpture #beaulieu #abbey #beaulieuabbey #hampshire #icarus #newforest #secretlondon #hampshirephotography #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #brockenhurst #passionpassport #travelstoke #travel Once is not enough, and so I’ll be back at Beaulieu today to once again inhale the wisteria, hear the bees buzz amid the laburnum, soak in the abbey’s remains ... and visit the palace for the first time. Beaulieu is a treasure, and I appreciate the incorporation of stunning sculptures around the grounds. #beaulieu #newforest #hampshire #garden #greatgardens #visualsoflife #gardening #landscapedesign #sculpture #architecturephotography #england #uk #ukroadtrip #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport #travelstoke #travel #wisteria #wisteriahysteria My thanks to Paul at @Beaulieu_Hants for insights on the incredible vehicles on display at the National Motor Museum yesterday, and for selling me what will doubtless be the winning ticket for a Mini Cooper convertible. Draw proceeds will benefit the museum’s Trust. Ever the optimist, I’ll look forward to returning to Beaulieu and collecting the car. In the interim, here are just some of the beautiful cars in the museum. #car #cars #classiccars #vintage #carlifestyle #carsoftheday #beaulieu #nationalmotormuseum #newforest #hampshire #rollsroyce #modelt #ford #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport #travelstoke #travel Ponies in the New Forest!

Wish you could smell these beautiful flowers. #wisteria #wisteriahysteria #laburnum #laburnumwalk #hampshirephotography #beaulieu #beaulieugarden #newforest #bees #springgarden #nature #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport #travelstoke #travel #birdsong One visit to Beaulieu is not enough. #sculpture #beaulieu #abbey #beaulieuabbey #hampshire #angel #newforest #secretlondon #hampshirephotography #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #brockenhurst #passionpassport #travelstoke #travel Driving in England’s New Forest this aft... #newforest #brockenhurst #england #horse #horses #hampshire #uk #nature #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport passport #travelstoke #travelpassion An already graceful and frisky foal in England’s New Forest #foal #mare #horse #horses #newforest #lyndhurst #hampshire #nationalpark #newforstnationalpark #nature #moonlight #risingmoon #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport #travelstoke #travel #horsesofinstagram A partial side view of Winchester Cathedral and its grounds, taken near the Close #hampshire #gardens #winchesteruk #arch #archway #archways #architecture #architecturephotography #cathedral #england #uk #winchestercathedral #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport #travelstoke #travelpassion Where might this low doorway lead? It’s tucked in to a quiet corner of the wonderful gardens and grounds surrounding England’s Winchester Cathedral. I thoroughly enjoyed meandering through these grounds before entering the impressive (and massive) Cathedral; it would be easy to spend hours here. #hampshire #lgarden #gardens #winchesteruk #door #doors #secretpassage #architecture #light #architecturephotography #cathedral #england #uk #visualsoflife #aplacetoremember #roamtheplanet #sourceadventures #worldcaptures #travelpassion #worldplaces #passionpassport #travelstoke #travelpassion In his mother’s footsteps ...
