Autumn Colour

This month's photography theme has been Autumn.  I took quite a few photos and here are the ones I like best.

I hope you found time to go outside during the Autumn.  And maybe you took some photos.

Thanks for joining me today

Some Autumn Colour

No matter what is going on, the seasons change.  Autumn is here with lots of colours.  The theme for our photography group was Autumn colours.

I had decided that I wouldn't take trees this time as I have taken so many over the years.  But just in case you're missing colourful trees, here are a couple from Westonbirt in 2015.

Autumn

Today I thought I would do a simple blog post sharing some of the photos I've taken of Autumn colour this year.  These are all taken in our back garden and I was trying to catch how the light played with the leaves.  Some of them are more successful than the others.

 

If you want to see more Autumn colour checkout my blog post about our visit to Westonbirt Arboreteum a couple of years ago.

Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness

Autumn.  Or Fall as it is known in the United States.  Apparently in Britain in the 16th century we tended to use the words 'fall of the leaf' or 'fall of the year' to describe the season and in the 17th century the word Fall was taken with those that emigrated to North America.  The word Fall fell out of use here and we embraced the word Autumn.

New England is famous for the colour of the leaves during the Fall and I have been privileged to be able to visit twice.  This year however we decided to make a much shorter trip and visited Westonbirt Arboretum.

I was a little snap happy!

And on the way home we had lunch at this really lovely pub called The Tunnelhouse Inn.

And found this amazing tunnel entrance to a disused canal.

In the meantime, the Maple in our backgarden hadn't done too badly for colour.

Thanks for stopping by.
