We may be heading into the dark days before Christmas, but this week the autumn colours have been exceptional. Partly I feel as the dull wet weather has allowed the colours to zing in the landscape. Sunlight is wonderful for lifting the scene into a strong vibrant image, but dull and wet conditions can provide a stronger hue, that kaleidoscope of yellows, reds and oranges somewhat punching above its weight through the gloom. Sadly most of the heart enriching scenes I notice are while on the move in the car, no opportunities to take a photograph. But this afternoon, the ginko tree in the BBC carpark, lit up the scene like a November firecracker. Maybe more on this at the weekend, when I'll have time to pop out and snap the crackle in the countryside. Just hope the impending storm tomorrow doesn't dislodge all the leaves!
