Autumn leaves

The colours of autumn are looking beautiful at the moment. I walked in the park yesterday and loved what I saw. It was a lovely day, sunny but a bit cool, perfect autumn weather. 

 

This is the way I usually start my walks in the park. I love the shadows on the path in the above photo. The paths around the park are all lined with trees so there's big opportunity to enjoy all shapes, sizes and shades of trees with turning leaves.

 

The colours are breath-taking, they shine with a real zing on such a bright day.

 

I love the golden yellow above, it really is mellow yellow!

 

When you're surrounded with such rich hues, it's hard to feel sad at the coming of autumn. Although the leaves are turning and will fall, I love the variety of colours in the transition of the seasons.

 

I'm trying to get fitter so am planning a lot more walks like this(and some cycling too). I feel really encouraged now, after seeing all this wonderful colour. I hope I can keep it up come the winter!

 

Hope you are enjoying some autumn colour and sun wherever you are this weekend!

A beautiful autumn day yet you seem to have the park to yourself.

Yes, I met very few people while I was out. I don't know why, it was 11am so not too early and no football on TV either. Perhaps they all ran away and hid when I appeared with my camera!?

Oh, I just love the colours on the trees just now. Beautiful pictures Marie.

Ive noticed that this year the colours are more yellowy than usual. They are truly beautiful,

Yesterday was a beautiful day! The trees are gorgeous though I think they're getting to the stage where a windy night will just blow all the leaves away. Great to make the most of it while we can. So nice to have a dry Autumn instead of the usual (or so it seems!) soggy affair we get here.
