This is my mum, the woman who brought me into this world and who nurtured my brother and me, she is still looking after our well-being now. I think the vast majority of the useful things that I've learned in life have been picked up from my mum and dad, they are wise folk. This picture was taken at the weekend whilst I was on a bank holiday visit. I like it as it is more or less how I picture mum when there is distance between us, surrounded by nature, Gloucestershire nature. Her stance makes me think that she is mulling over the bigger picture, as she often does.
