Whether it’s referendum or election results that get you down, you can always rely on nature to brighten your mood, so get out into the great outdoors if you can, and if you can’t then come on a short walk with me.
Annoyingly you can see my shadow in the one below.
It was when we were coming back from our usual morning walk for the newspaper on a beautiful day last week I wished I had brought the camera with me. But the good tree colour that I wanted to capture before it disappeared was just a short hop from our place, so it was easy to go home and pick up the camera.
The photo below is looking down to the Balbirnie burn, it doesn’t look it but it’s quite far down a steep embankment.
In fact these are some of the trees that I often photograph from a spare back bedroom.
There are some old farm buildings nearby.
It’s shame you can’t catch the lovely scent of autumn, but I hope the photos blew some of your cobwebs away – if you have any!










Beautiful clear tints, and I guess there has been no wild weather to sweep the leaves from the trees.
Valerie,
We haven’t had high winds now for a few weeks, but that was when the horse chestnut and larger leaved trees lost most of their leaves.
Autumn seems to have been especially lovely this year – from one end of the british Isles to the other. Beautiful colours, Katrina, such peaceful images. Thanks for sharing them đŸ™‚
Sandra,
I’m glad you enjoyed them.
Gorgeous photos!! What magnificent color.
Joan,
Thanks. It is a great colour, it’s just a pity that so many other bigger leaves got blown off before they could change colour.
Beautiful! Especially those red tree from your back bedroom window. Wow!
Stefanie,
The sun hits those trees about 4 pm every afternoon – if the sun is around – and it makes the trees really glow, we love watching it.
Stunning, stunning color, sharpness, brilliance–freaking gorgeous photos! How do you do it? Do you have a special camera? What did you do that made these beauties? I’m grateful for such an uplifting view!
Judith,
No we just have a simple point and click Canon camera. I think it helps that the sun was shining!
Love the gold, and the light hitting those red leaves in that one photo.
Christy,
It was shame that by the time I ran to get my camera the sun was almost gone from the trees, it had been much more spectacular.
