Hello October ....

October always seems to herald the start of darker times, a move closer to Winter as the days shorten & the colours deepen.

I love the way the seasons blend seamlessly into each other, the changes subtle but distinct. Every morning I look out of my window, above the tree tops & onto the fields & I can see the changes ...

After a week of wild weather & floods - fortunately not for us, we needed to clear the cobwebs so headed out to a favourite local place - attingham-park



Oh dear - the chickens were very cute when they roamed but ...


The beautiful walled garden is still full of colour - gorgeous flowers in favourite colours ...


Towering trees frame this path - can you see the walkers in the distance?


I love the simple lines of this bridge & how it has a gentle bounce as you walk over ...


and the patterns made by the leaves & the sky ....


Which way today - deer park or woodland?


Tiny orange fungi look very cute pushing up amongst the moss ...


and Autumn leaves ....

The magnificent Attingham Park - my favourite view, a Downton Abbey type moment!


and the river Severn near the historic Ironbridge in Shropshire ....


Hope you are ready for October & the change of season it brings. Thanks for stopping by, always lovely to read the comments & return the visits!
