Red, Yellow and Green


My son was unexpectedly invited to a friends house for birthday cake and ice cream so rather than go back home for an hour and a half I went to Yatton Park. I knew it would be looking stunning at this time of year and as always I had my camera in my bag!
There are so many trees at Yatton Park, some of them are ever-greens of course but there was no shortage of Autumn colours. The photo below is just to give the green/yellow tree at the front here perspective. I was standing on a raised area which has made the lower branches on this look close to the ground but I could almost stand beneath them. It was a stunning day to as you can see by the blue sky, frosty morning breaking out to a wonderfully warm day. I created art outside and actually got too hot!

We're off to the hospital again tomorrow to make sure the bone grafts have taken and to get more casts put on Miss 10 again. We're only supposed to be there one night this time so hopefully we'll be home again some time on Tuesday. Perhaps another week or so of bed rest for my daughter and then she should be back at school again. I am also due to have an operation to repair a hernia and will meet the surgeon this Wednesday to find out when it will be...talk about cutting it fine!

Thank you all for your visits and comments, despite my sporadic tours of the globe. I hope this finds you all healthy, wealthy and creatively inspired!

Crop this wher the bottom tree is at its widest and you capture the splendor of creation.

No red leaves in crop - play with excact crop height, if you want.

Beautiful! I love fall and all its brilliant colors, especially on days when the sky is bright, bright blue. This picture captures it all perfectly!
