Fall ... love it ... "Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness" ... Keats really nailed it.

1. Its always good to start off with a bit of innuendo, so here's my conkers.
2. The gallery tends to get into most photos.
3. Looking over the colourful Autumnal scene, Moleside in the distance and the Coppice out of view on the left.
4. The gallery dominated with an out of place eucalyptus tree.
5. Its lucky I was carrying some decorators stilts for this shot.
6. The gallery is often snapped from this location.
7. As the Summer becomes a memory the roses throw up the last few blooms.
8. It gets easier with time.
9. Behind those trees used to be Hilltop Home for the Elderly, now as flat as a Fluke.
10. You don't realise how difficult it is climbing a drainpipe holding a camera until you give it a go.

Great colours - did you polish those conkers?

I must admit they looked buffed up, but they are just as they fell off the tree.

Today in Pictures, Mercer Park, a sunny period, later in the day it was to be under a deluge.

Wayoh res is a favourie walk of ours and the railway viaduct from that angle is one of my favourite pics. I have photographed that at various time of the year and everytime it is different.

Lovely colour again and it looks very tranquil - not a soul in sight!

Really nice varied selection - some lovely effects you've applied too!

These are from last Sunday's walk - my feet haven't touched the ground all week with one thing and another! I did a new country circuit and coming to the church in Castelnuovo del Zappa I saw it was open and there were more people about than I've ever seen before. They were waiting for a concert to start to inaugurate the new roof repairs (note copper finishing on the front surrounds - I wonder how long it will last!). I had a sneak preview of the final rehearsal. the choir were students from the music conservatory in Cremona which is part of the University of Milan. Shame you can't hear the singing - they were excellent.

Number one is my favourite - I can almost hear the leaves rustling

One or two people can be seen in the distance, but for most of it I managed to chase everyone away brandishing a stick.

Great shots - number 2 and 4 stand out for me, as well as the birds. What's the story behind the fairy grotto?

Close your eyes and use the Force ... and you will be able to hear the trees growing
