15.5.08 - One of the joys of occasionally having to work out of town, is the chance to take a scenic detour on the way home. Today I took that chance. I spotted this beautiful cottage on the edge of Donington on Bain, a picturesque village in the area known as The Lincolnshire Wolds. The Wolds are low rolling chalk hills, barely reaching 500' above sea level, with lots of charming villages hidden away in the valleys.
I was going to post this photo straight from the camera, but after I'd tried the watercolour treatment on it I knew this would be my DP, I hope you like it as much as I do. As usual with the watercolours, it looks better the bigger you view it :)
I took a lot more photos in the village itself, mostly of the old church, which can be found here;

There are also some watercolours of the church here;
