Simple details







Hooray it's Spring!  The switch has been flipped and the lights are back on!  Suddenly there's a world outside again. I took these on a trip to Hardwick Hall, but everywhere I look I'm seeing the details of life, as if for the first time, baptised in the Spring light.

What lovely images, cannot resist mallets and chisels - they look very much live stone carving ones! And adore the bottom under the chisels - makes me want to carve one - anyone willing to pose?

They were taken at the stone carving centre at Hardwick Hall. Have you been? It was featured on Monty Don's Master Crafts programme last year. I love old tools. Such beauty in utility.
And what a bum! I couldn't resist a photo!

Ashamed to say I've never been - on my 'to do' list straight away - thanks for nudge!
