A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.

Have a guess whose garden I went to visit today.
I'll give you a little hint.
 This is his house in a beautiful part of northern France called Giverny. He has lots of visitors throughout the summer and this beautiful sunny day was no exception.
 It is of course, Impressionist artist Claude Monet's house and garden, featuring the famous bridge and waterlillies. The fast pace of Paris seemed like a world away from this stunningly beautiful and peaceful setting. Here is one of my many photos of the Japanese garden... 
 and my artistic attempt at a sunflower...complete with visiting wildlife.
