Autumn

I'm a little puzzled by autumn this year.  It has a shabby feel.  Leaves aren't changing as they often do to bright flames, but seem to be shrinking into dirty green then brown.
I went out to snap some autumn this afternoon, berries are good, Virginia creeper is red, but not a lot of golden.  Maybe I should have patience and wait for autumn-yet-to-come?

Oh, I did spot my first pumpkins in a window!

Sorry I realize I haven't been a diligent visitor here...
The busy third term at school, the summer holidays, plus my forgetting mind...

Hey, no problem - I've looked at yours from time to time, but haven't managed to sing myself in to comment yet.

I have been enjoying myself with the camera.

I'm taking my new camera to England of course. Will practise there !
