We have an L-shaped lawn that runs across the front - East - side of the house and round the North side. The lawn at the front is relatively new, laid when we remodeled the garden after our son was born. The side lawn is older, essentially untouched since we moved in.
A couple of years ago, I decided I was going to improve the quality of the side lawn, which was full of clover, moss and weeds. So, I instituted a regime of regular cutting and feeding and I bought an electric lawn rake. And the lawn responded to all this TLC and I got rid of most of the moss and clover.
Last year of course, it all went backwards. Regular trips to Liverpool meant that the garden was neglected. But this year, I was going to recover the situation, until my lawn rake broke and I managed to electrocute myself trying to fix it.
Anyway, the clover is back, with a vengeance. Above is an example, the image made in a rush because I was just about to mow the lawn again. This meant that I broke my usual rule and made the image when the sun was out, which is how I achieved the high contrast that I like about it.
