The north wind doth blow

but, unlike some in the UK, we did not have snow this morning! And I should hope not. It's only October after all! We have had some beautiful sunshine today so T, T and I went for a walk round our favourite field this afternoon. It takes an hour (it is a very big field) and there is always something for all of us to enjoy. Deer poo doesn't hold quite the same appeal to me as it does for the dogs, but I find plenty of other things to ring my bell.

We had a real autumn walk, crunching our way through fallen leaves, enjoying the colours in the ageing blackberry leaves, and the clean fresh lines of the winter wheat.

Early morning light

There have been some cracking early morning skies this week. The sunrise has generated a strong rose gold light which has been picked up not only in the clouds but also through the silver-white grasses around the edge of the golf course. I always marvel at the clouds. Constantly changing, formations that have never been seen before, never to be seen again.

In a vase on Monday - colour

The intense colours in my vase this week come from nasturtiums, sweetpeas and a single glorious zinnia! Their beauty and love of life speak for themselves and need no further words from me! Enjoy!

A simple vase on Monday

I have just one flower in my vase this week. A simple, pretty, wild narrow-leaved Michaelmas daisy. The vase is actually a black pottery cup. I wish I could remember where we bought it and who made it, but it is a great favourite of mine. I even made it the subject of a piece of artwork several years ago. Clearly shaped by hand, it has the air of a Japanese piece about it.
