Beautiful pic of the Acer David. They grow well up here as long as they're sheltered. Passed a lovely one yesterday - quite small but had a stunning soft orangey glow. Will have to go out and look for it again!
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
What wonderful pictures on this thread! I'd forgotten what a joy autumn is.
Here's my tiny acre. (About 70cm tall). I must have had it 15 years, in a pot, then planted out last year.
It was a very weeping shape so I've tried to train it a little more upright, removing lower branches and tying to the post. The ties have just been removed and fingers crossed it won't need much more help.
Hi, Ann - I'm visiting Wales on the Sun 3rd & The Lakes on Wed 6th. I hadn't any gardens in mind, but as you know, the scenery in both places is stunning.....particularly in autumn.
are they day trips David or are you staying for a few days ? we have had a lot of heavy rain over the last few days so a lot of trees have lost there leaves but as you say the scenery is stunning and now we are both able we do have lots of days out and never tire of it and despite living here all our lives we can still find places we have never seen before although we do avoid the lakes in the high tourist season and go east into Yorkshire

Thanks, marty.....I could have done without the barrier pole in front of the deer though.
Lovely photos David - that first one really captures the essence of the season - fab

This is one of my favourite autumn tint pics......I like the reflections & composition.
I'm visiting Wales & The Lake District during the first week of November, specifically looking to photograph some nice autumn scenes.

David as your coming to the lake district have you any gardens in mind to visit ?
