Pic of the week
I have been enjoying the colours of the trees this week. They have been a lovely range of colours and, when its not been raining*, I have been deliberately drinking in their beauty, full in the knowledge that before too long they will be gone and we will be left with a barren brown-grey vista for a few months to come.
In the garden, I have still have some cosmos and nasturtiums flowering, and a couple of poppies keep popping up in the “wildflower” corner of the lawn, to provide some cheerful colour alongside the autumnal hues. My grasses (near the fig) which did so well this year are just beginning to turn, I’ll keep them in place for some structural interest until spring doesn’t seem too far away.
*its been a wet autumn so far, with wind and rain never far away. A damp, depressing winter beckons (good job we’re off to Spain (Cordoba) in 28 days time!)
