We have this great little space on the side of our house right outside the kitchen door. We have our wood pile for the fireplace there and we keep a lot of garden tools alongside as well. Even though I'm not all that excited about the ivy, it makes a good back drop and I like the deep green of the leaves. I tweaked the levels a little in PS to bring out the shadows a bit.
Our plan is to eventually replace the ivy with a wood fence and to extend the brick walkway into the back yard. You can see a view down the side of the house here.
Here are shots of the Cathi's roses in the back yard here and here.

Now that I think about it, those garden tools would make a good PAD subject!
