It’s been a busy week (again!) so I haven’t managed to spend any time in my own garden.
I still can’t help but take photos as I walk around town though.
The trees are losing their colour and their leaves. Autumn is running on apace and this week it has been cold. We have seen frost for the first time on our walk to school.
I have clearly been taking too many photos of trees as the 4yo now points out particularly pretty ones to me to make sure I get them :)
Today, it rained. The stark branches against grey skies are, to me, the clearest sign that winter is approaching.
There is still a little colour to be seen though, and I will continue to seek it out for as long as it is there to be found.
I am linking up with the wonderful Mammasaurus again for her ‘How does your garden grow?’ linky. Click on the badge and be inspired.

The pink house really makes the first picture.
I think your 4 yo is starting to develop an artistic eye. Lovely when they get involved too!
Thanks! That’s on our walk to school :) He really is good at spotting photo ops… We’ll have to get him his own camera soon :)
I love that you are seeking out the colours, they are so good aren’t they? I love that last photos of the tree with just a few leaves left – I can totally see us taking some really moody looking bare tree photos over the next few weeks!
As usual you have made me want to get on a plane – thanks for joining in x
The colours are still fabulous, but there are lots of bare trees now. I think you’re right, lots of moody b&w shots of branches coming up :) The last photo was my favourite too! Thanks for hosting xx
Beautiful colours. Lovely to see the range of oranges and reds out there now x
Isn’t it? There is still colour out there, but lots of bare branches and piles of leaves too :)
Wow your house with the gorgeous colourful tree outside looks amazing! Just last ngiht we were watching a film and said ‘I bet American houses aren’t really like that’ thinking it’s probably artistic licence!’ This suggests we are wrong! :-)
I wish that was my house, although to be fair, my house does look quite like that – just a bit smaller :) But, yes – the houses really do look like that – I still sometimes feel like I’ve stepped into Desperate Housewives!
Wow, the leaves are so golden! Most of the trees here are still quite green but I’m looking forward to their leaves changing colour.
There is such a range of colour still, although more and more trees are bare now… I’ll keep looking for the colour though :)
Such fabulous photos Sara – I just love the reds and yellows against that blue sky too. Seems a shame to think of winter already though doesn’t it :)
I know, but we’ve had frost the last few mornings! I’m just keeping my fingers crossed that it doesn’t snow :)
I love tree shots, and that first one is just BEAUTIFUL. The colours in this post are wonderful. Make me think of Dawson’s Creek!
Thank you :) The colours are just fabulous, I can’t stop taking photos of them!
Gorgeous pictures – looks exactly like I imagined New England in the fall would look! xx
Thank you! I can’t help taking photos :)
