Weather wise, things have come to such a pass here in the UK, that if you see even a glimmer of sun and a good day, you go out. So, this weekend we did, and I took my camera. There is little greenery to be seen still, but there are now buds on the trees, and some signs of life. However, the barrenest of the trees with the sun upon them have a peculiar stark beauty. Here are some of my favourites, the rest are on Flickr.

Today I went for a little walk with my 550D after the school run. Because Orla has been so poorly in the last couple of weeks, I have barely left the house, so I decided I needed some fresh air and sun on my face. It’s so lovely to finally be seeing all the Autumn colours we have been waiting for. However, given the lateness of the season, sadly the leaves are falling as fast as they are turning, so that many of the trees are already fairly denuded. Alas, his year we will only get to enjoy all those lovely russet and golden hues for a very short while. But, I have managed to catch some lovely colours, and here are some of my favourite shots taken today, the rest have been added to my Autumn 2011 collection on Flickr. Click on each image to enlarge.

Here are a selection of some of the shots I took at Breachfield Gardens (many thanks to Jeanette House and her family for the opportunity) when I was in Shaftesbury a couple of weeks ago, if you are interested in seeing them all, then check out the set on my Flickr account. Also, below is a slide show I made of some of the best which is on my YouTube account. Enjoy!
