Powerscourt House and Gardens

“Powerscourt Estate, located near Enniskerry, County Wicklow, Ireland, is a large country estate which is noted for its house and landscaped gardens, today occupying 19 hectares. The house, originally a 13th century castle, was extensively altered during the 18th century by German architect Richard Cassels, starting in 1731 and finishing in 1741. A fire in 1974 left the house lying as a shell until it was renovated in 1996.” (source)

I really like the different persons (all near a bench :P ) scattered around the image, and the shape of the paths. And the sky off course. :)
