Finally we’ve had our first hard frost this autumn. It was eight weeks later than usual.
It was worth waiting for though…
First Frost
Cotinus coggygria
After the rain the sun came out.
Acer Palmatum in Autumn
I love Autumn… especially this year. It’s most definitely been the best time to get outside, walk through the woods and take photos of trees and leaves. It’s been mild and sunny in Lancashire and the trees around here have been simply stunning.
Autumn Leaves
Sunshine and blue sky provide the perfect backdrop to some stunning trees with brilliant autumn colours. I drive past these roadside trees often but never take much notice. They usually merge in with all the other green summer leaves so I’ve only just noticed how beautiful they are.
Caramel Katsura Trees
Jane Burkinshaws’s recent blog posts about photographing trees and leaves encouraged me to get outside and experiment a bit this weekend. There are many beautiful deciduous trees with good autumn colour and the Katsura tree is one of my favourites.
