A Countess Below Stairs.
If you click on the author's name under the quote, you will see where I got the following information from. There is a lot more to read.
"Eva Maria Charlotte Michelle Ibbotson (née Wiesner; 21 January 1925 – 20 October 2010), was an Austrian-born British novelist, known for her children's literature. Some of her novels for adults have been reissued for the young adult market. The historical novel Journey to the River Sea (Macmillan, 2001) won her the Smarties Prize in category 9–11 years, garnered an unusual commendation as runner-up for the Guardian Prize, and made the Carnegie, Whitbread, and Blue Peter shortlists. She was a finalist for the 2010 Guardian Prize at the time of her death. Her last book, The Abominables, was among four finalists for the same award in 2012.
She was so right about the benefits of being outside.
ReplyDeleteThank you Sue! I agree, and a saying I used to hear a lot of, a change of scenery is as good as a rest :)
DeleteThat looks absolutely beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you Angie, I am always looking at tree tops. So glad I took a photo of these :)
DeleteThe colors and depth on this are fabulous! so intense. And the branches in the back look like shadows!!! I've never seen that kind of effect before.
ReplyDeleteHappy you enjoyed them Ginny :) I used an app years ago to turn my photo into art. I wish I could remember what it was. I wasn’t as diligent of taking notes of such things back then unfortunately.
