Duck Reflections

Walking around the gardens is a perfect way to spend the afternoon after a long week. Being able to walk amongst nature and take in the scenery and wildlife. I was reflecting on my week staring out at the pond and thought the reflection in the water of this duck was particularly beautiful. I just had to take a moment to appreciate it and take a photo to remind myself of how peaceful life can be when it all seems a little hectic! (Rachel Marshall)

Stork residing at Chiswick House Lake

This stork was relaxing at the edge of Chiswick House lake and the reflections from the surface of the lake give the photo an almost watercolour effect that I love.

Flower power boat

I see this boat and just loved how the plant had rooted inside and was growing.
I love the river and on a sunny day, it’s just beautiful.  (Allison Finch)
