An autumnal walk

I think this autumn is one of the most colourful I can remember.  The colours in the beech trees, silver birch, field maple and wild cherries, in particular, are spectacular.  Rich and glowing, especially in the gloaming of grey and rainy days we have had in the last week or so.

The dogs and I had another peaceful walk through the grounds of Gosford House on Monday afternoon.  It is such a tranquil place and I really enjoy the reflections of the trees in the lakes.
The water courses through the grounds were full to brimming and gushing along, as the water made its way out to the nearby sea.
 Green sputnik!

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.
