Way back in September, it seemed autumn was going to come early this year, as the leaves started to look a bit brown. Somehow though, the season has ended up dragging itself out so that it is only now, mid-November, that the richest colours are showing through. The best of the gold is confined largely to beeches and birches. Walking in Trench Woods was delightful, with sprays of tiny gold leaves clinging on under the empty canopy of the larger trees.

Glory in the woods

Lovely open woodland with gorgeous colour. Oaks and Sycamores are catching up fast around here but there's still a lot of green in some places.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots! Looks like our woods.
ReplyDeleteWonderful autumn shots!
ReplyDeleteWe had something of a delay because of weather in September for our fall colours.
Beautiful. Our fall was late too and it seemed to be the yellows & golds that were the highlights this year rather than the reds.
ReplyDeleteThe colors look good now.
