The scene

A vast walled garden at dusk, ancient red sandstone walls rising twenty feet high and encircling a wide lawn and late-season flowerbeds. A distant cluster of tuba players in dark coats walks the gravel path away from the viewer, their polished brass bells catching the last low sunlight as warm gold shapes against long blue shadows. Autumn trees within the walls show pale green and rust foliage; the sky is a soft grey-lilac. Cool air, wisps of breath, the garden otherwise empty and hushed. Natural late-September light, from the west, low and slanting. No text, lettering, captions, signage or numerals anywhere in the image. 16:9 landscape

It’s going to be a blast: why 100 tubas are heading for a garden in Haddington
