I'm just having fun with my Windows 8.1.1 computer. Sometimes I forget that I even have an app page on here, since it opens right to Desktop, Like Win. 7 used to. But it's so hard to believe how much power this thing really has. And, if I start looking at new appps to download, in the app store, forget it. I'll be hooked into it for hours. I rarely use any of the apps on this computer, but it's nice to know they are there. Usually I just go into my Desktop, and open Chrome. And go from there. Or use my VLC media player to watch TV shows or movies that I download onto an external drive. I do use Lightroom, as I'm doing right now to write this caption, and spend some time in Photoshop, when I'm in the mood. I just can't say enough about how great Windows 8.1.1 is. They really improved it over Win. 8.0, a lot.

Shooting Elise and Wout was for me an excercise in using the location / background (fortress De Burcht, Leiden, Netherlands) with only some mental preparation. This was shot with my 50mm at f/3.5. I had to stand on the battlements with strong winds to get this shot. I suppose it breaks a few compositional rules. Oh well.
Processed first in Lightroom, transferred to Photoshop for careful cloning and highpass sharpening and back to Lightroom for final touches.
You may view more of my images of Ickworth House, Park and gardens, by clicking "here" !
Ickworth House is a country house near Bury St. Edmunds, Suffolk, England. It is a neoclassical building set in parkland.
The house built between 1795 and 1829, was formerly the chief dwelling of an estate owned by the Hervey family, later Marquesses of Bristol, since 1467. The building was the creation of Frederick Hervey, 4th Earl of Bristol and Bishop of Derry who commissioned the Italian architect Asprucci to design him a classical villa in the Suffolk countryside. The Earl died in 1803, leaving the completion of house to his successor. In 1956, the house, park, and a large endowment were given to the National Trust in lieu of death duties. As part of the handover agreement, a 99-year lease on the 60-room East Wing was given to the Marquess of Bristol. However, in 1998 the 7th Marquess of Bristol sold the remaining lease on the East Wing to the National Trust. This wing is now a 27-bedroom hotel. As one of England's more unusual houses, Ickworth has been unflatteringly described as resembling "a huge bulk, newly arrived from another planet" and as "an overgrown folly" Yet, is now being architecturally re-asessed and recognised as the only building in England comparable with the monumental works of Boullée and Ledoux. The design concept was based on the designs of Italian architect Mario Asprucci, most noted for his work at the Villa Borghese. Asprucci's plans were adapted the and the building work overseen by English architects Francis Sandys and his brother Joseph Sandys. The façades are of brick covered in stucco; beneath a roof of slate and lead. The central Rotunda 105 ft. high with domed and balustraded roof. the building is entered through central entrance ionic pedimented portico. The Rotunda is decorated with pilasters, which on the lower floor are Ionic and Corinthian above. The ground and first floor and the third floor and the balustraded parapet are divided friezes bas-relief. The rotunda is flanked by segmental single story narrow wings(appearing as a blind arcade) linking, in the palladian fashion, to two terminating pavilions; these segmental wings are broken at their centre by projecting bays which house the smoking and Pompeian rooms, both later 19th century additions. Unlike the design of a true Palladian building, the terminating pavilions are in fact large wings, complementary to the rotunda which is their corps de logis rather than minor balancing appendages. The East Wing, a small mansion in itself, was designed to be the everyday living quarters of the family (which it remained until 1998), thus permitting the more formal rooms of the rotunda to be reserved for entertaining and display. The west wing, intended as an orangery, sculpture gallery and service rooms remained an unfinished shell until the beginning of the 21st century. For much of the time it was used as an agricultural store. Paintings by Velázquez, Titian, Poussin, and Claude Lorraine, as well as an unrivalled series of 18th-century family portraits by artists such as Gainsborough, Reynolds, Vigee-Lebrun, Batoni, Angelica Kauffman, Ramsay, Van Loo, and Hogarth. In addition, Ickworth has arguably the best collections in Britain of fine Georgian silver. The house also contains very good examples of Regency furniture and porcelain. Most members of the Hervey family, from Thomas Hervey (d. 1467) up to the 7th Marquess of Bristol, have been buried at Ickworth Church, which is located in the Park, a short walk from the house. The church is Norman with some later additions, and possesses a 15th-century wall painting of the Angel of the Annunciation, a 15th-century font, and roundels of Flemish glass from as early as 14th century, as well as numerous marble achievements to different members of the Hervey family over the centuries. It remains in the hands of the Hervey family and has recently undergone repairs to make it safe with the help of a grant from English Heritage.

So why not take a look at more of the oddities inside Snowshill Manor, click ........ "here" ....... Snowshill Manor was the property of Winchcombe Abbey from 821 until 1539 when the Abbey was confiscated by King Henry VIII during the Dissolution of the Monasteries.
Between 1539 and 1919 it had a number of tenants and owners until it was purchased by Charles Paget Wade, an architect, artist-craftsman, collector, poet and heir to the family fortune. He restored the property, living in the small cottage in the garden and using the manor house as a home for his collection of objects. He gave the property and the contents of this collection to the National Trust in 1951.
The manor house is a typical Cotswold house, made from local stone; the main part of the house dates from the 16th century.
Today, the main attraction of the house is perhaps the display of Wade's collection. From 1900 until 1951, when he gave the Manor to the National Trust, Wade amassed an enormous and eclectic collection of objects reflecting his interest in craftsmanship. The objects in the collection include 26 suits of Japanese samurai armour dating from the 17th and 19th centuries; bicycles; toys; musical instruments and more.
On 5 October 2003, the house was closed and its entire contents removed in order to effect a number of repairs. In particular, the electrical wiring needed updating, new fire, security and environmental monitoring systems were installed, and the existing lighting was improved. The house reopened on 25 March 2005.

Mirrors set into the doors made this small space appear spacious. Bronze-coloured plaster statues by Ivan Prokofyev represent 12 months of the year. The ceiling fresco by Giovanni Scotti consists of four scenes of cupids engaged in occupations symbolising the four seasons. The crystal lanterns resemble inverted bells. The staircase takes us to the State Vestibule.
