Some pictures in and around our new house (page 2/3)

The house from the front

It’s a blue house, in the country. We are (2006/7) having it repainted in a different colour, but when we bought it, it was blue.

The house from the front 2

This is taken from the road. The previous owner left the wooden sculpture, but we asked him to remove it when he had a chance, and he kindly did. [more...]

The gallery 1

The art gallery; the building behind is our barn.

The gallery 2

The gallery, again, this time from further back. The buildings are not on a steep hill, but rather, I held the camera at an angle, something I do all too often. [more...]

Marzipan the cat in the sun 1

Mars likes the sun.

Marzipan the cat in the sun 2

No, I didn’t move the ladder, I took it out of the photograph digitally :-)

Marzipan the cat in the sun 3

Another shot, still a little overexposed.

Cosmos the cat hunts a moth

Cosmos was always fascinated by insects, if they were large enough for her to see them. She was an Egyptian Mau.

Softwood floor

Sometimes called a barn-plank floor I think.

Wood stove 1

We had to remove this for insurance reasons, but here is a black woodstove that was once used for heating, with the sun streaming in from the window and onto the wooden floor. [more...]

Wood stove 2

A room in our (then) new house, with a wood-stove. This is less over-exposed than the previous image.
