... which my wife has been looking after for well over 30 years. I took the photo with my Fuji X-T3 camera and then edited the RAW file in Capture 1 Fujifilm Express, Topaz Studio 2 and Photoshop Elements.

I'm taking a break from posting photos onto Flickr for a while, so I’ll be back some time in the New Year.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, everyone!
