Warm Autumnal Air and Handfuls of Conkers........

Yesterday, we ate American style pancakes with warm blueberry sauce for brunch. We then headed out into the unusually warm sunshine for a little walk, which turned into a long walk because I had to stop and take pictures of everything.

This year, I've been talking more pictures than ever, which means, I've noticed more details in everything I pass: the colours of the leaves; blending right through from green, orange to red and then brown. The stunningly fat, shiny conkers and acorns continuously threaten to knock you out as you walk under their looming mother ships. Mushrooms (or Toadstools) stand tall and proud, safe between the nettles and thorns, become illuminated in light; they claim centre stage briefly as the gentle wind blows the tree leaves apart.

There is so much life, ever changing yet apparently still, apparently silent. I've really enjoyed watching our wood's change with the seasons......and I cannot wait until the snow falls; I wonder what new details will be noticed then? Can't wait!
