What was I photographing on this day in previous years?

Five years ago it was the National Trust gardens at Nymans in West Sussex.

The gardens at Nymans are beautiful and well worth visiting at any time of the year…

What was I photographing on this day in previous years?

Nine years ago it was this mildly customised 1955 Ford Customline ‘Tudor’ Sedan at a Charnwood Cruisers gathering near Loughborough in Leicestershire.

I seem to remember it was fitted with a 302 cu in (4.9l) V8 engine from a Ford Mustang…
