Happy Halloween!

The Sun's Rays

A beautiful sunset on the North Devon coast,

stayed until the sun finally set.  A wonderful end to the day.

And earlier that day, the sun glistened over the sea

The sun's rays are always welcome,

 regardless of whatever the time of the day!



Autumn Reflections

 

 

 

After Work

Often wish I had time in the morning,

 to just stop the car &

  leisurely take photos of the sun rising.

Not a chance! 

But finally,

one evening after work this week,

I did manage to capture these sunset moments instead.

Willett Hill

A walk taken a few weeks ago in the Somerset countryside.

It is definitely a hill! 

 But thankfully,

 a gradual gradient,

 walking through woodland in a spiral direction. . . .

Finally,

with a walk through the bracken flanked with small trees,

 the top of the hill was in sight.

The ruin of Willett Tower. . . .

Over the hill, looking back,

the tower is shadowed with the lowering sun.

But, what an amazing view, the Somerset countryside



Seasonal Changes at Hestercombe Gardens

 The Autumn colours are now starting to settle in. . . .

The transformed leaves of various shades of red,

 brown & yellow are now falling into nestled heaps. . .

Plants may be shedding there spring & summer colour,

 but the vibriant red of Autumn is stunning indeed!

Even the dead flowerheads of the blue thistle,

 still offers a new dimension,

 to this ever creeping season.



Blending in. . . .

Sightseeing in Bath

Bath Abbey,

 situated next adjacent the famous Roman Baths.

Unfortunately,

Bath was so busy with summer tourist,

 this will be visited another time.

The Pump Rooms,

the restaurant impressive with it's beautiful Chandliers

Views looking towards Putney Bridge

Unique character with shops built across Putney Bridge

Bath boast so much in the way of stunning architecture

Entrance to the gardens,

 hosting an old fashioned Band Stand

Busy waterways with boat trips & barges

Gardens in Blue

Watchful!

Recently, with trying to access a footpath,

 I had to pass through  a field of cows,

I even interrupted the above cow,

 right in the middle of feeding!

How inconsiderate of me!

They were forever watchful,

 while I walked to the otherside of the field to access the other gate

One even became braver.

I promptly shut the gate behind me

& continued with my walk.
