Autumn fruits


The world is getting ready for winter and there are fruits and seed everywhere
Lots of them are messy and dry and boring until you take a closer look
Airy fluff with the hard sweeps of the pods .


Tiny rusting rosettes


Sycamore keys, after all this time I hadn't realised they had red stalks.
I know if you park under them your car will never be the same but had never stopped cursing long enough to admire their beauty.




Well after all that arty stuff the reality was ....it was sunny but brisk. I was all keyed up to photo in good light when the clouds drifted over. The smoke I thought was drifting up ahead turned out to be rain, fine but effective and me without a coat. Every time I pointed the camera at something the wind sprang up from nowhere and shook it out of focus. So if you like the pictures just be aware of all the hard work it took


Finally this gate amuses me. It leans in at a jaunty 45 degrees and intermittently is repaired with rural nonchalant optimism


Its supposed to keep 3 horses and a rabbit colony in and any number of dogs out.
