Autumn Sunshine

As we set out today, it was one of those bright, sunlit, chilly mornings which makes you want to be out and about taking it all in. It was also one of those days when you just want to enjoy the 'bigger picture' and simply enjoy some wider views. Starting out along what we know as 'the donkey walk.' Here, the Birches are hanging on to their golden leaves.

Further on, we had some spectacular views across the farmland, towards Shipley Hill and the autumnal shades which glowed in the sunshine.

Through a small copse of trees which took us off Slack Lane, it was time to stop and look up...

through the thinning canopy of Oak and Ash leaves...

to the blue skies beyond.

From here, our onward path was laid out before us with shafts of light slanting through the hedgerow.

A little digital 'bloom' adds a certain something..

Time to head home and get the coffee on!
