Now quite a few of our photographers are enjoying the gardens owned by the NT (National Trust,) Quite a few of your fabulous photographs that have been taken on NT grounds have been taken down by your POD site. This is due to the images being offered for sale, the NT are looking around all print on demand sites and sending out take down notices. The Garden Tripod has been in touch with the English NT and they have informed us that if your images are for display only they are happy, however once you offer them for sale they will (when they find them) issue a take down notice. We have also been told that the NT is working hard to find a way of supporting the wonderful photographers that do visit their grounds. As soon as we get more news on this we will let you know, so do please keep displaying your amazing photographs, just don't have them marked up for sale.

I also has some very sad news from the Blue Horse Mukwa Equine Retirement and Rescue Centre. They have been a part of a large rescue of horses, all in very poor health. The Blue Horse Rescue took in a little Mare in foal, Sadly this foal was stillborn and now the mare named Noki is going need all the help she can get to rebuild her strength. A few months ago the Garden Tripod featured the Blue Horse Rescue and h e l p e d p ro d u c e a w o n d e r f u l publication showing a handful of their wonderful horses to help raise funds for the rescue. We are also planing to help produce a hard cover book later in the year. If you could click the cover below for the Blue Horse Rescue and view publication it will show your support. If you wish to purchase a hard copy then all the info you need is available in the link. editor
