Foliage, flowers, fungi and fragments

I have just got my computer back from repairs; and therefore I'm a bit tentative about what works and what doesn't.

Anyway I got to go for a walk in the clear autumn air this morning. The day started with soft colours across the valley - one of the aspects of autumn-winter that I enjoy.

I was quite taken with the colours and patterns of foliage today.

But of course there are always a few flowers to create enjoyment.

This little forest of fungi welcomed me home.

The other aspect of autumn-winter I enjoy is how rainbows invade the house and colour the walls.

A joyful and hope filled start to the day.
