A veritable feast for the birds, magic.

I tend to think of this season as lacking interest for the camera. And I’m always delighted to find that isn’t so!

Beautiful colours and I enjoyed seeing the last of the flying creatures!

We still have a few butterflies in my garden, and yesterday a dragonfly appeared. But they won’t remain much longer

Wonderful selection, Crispina! I honestly don’t know why I have so much trouble finding fungi over here. I must not be looking in the right places 😉

I’m surprised how much we’re finding, already. I always think of November being our best fungi season

Goes to show! I haven’t had a walk in the woods lately. Maybe I’d be lucky.

I was out this week, a new woodland explored. Wow! But that walk won’t feature here for a while yet. I seem to have a backlog!

Yes, you always share quite a bit after the walks. 😉

My devious device to hold some back for those weeks when I can’t get out for the walk, which happens!

Nothing wrong with that! I admire that you do. Most times, if I don’t post about something, I put it away in the lost pile.

I have ‘in stock’ several days’ shoots from last year’s holiday, and at least one beach walk, and one along our estuary. All ready for a photographic dearth!

Thank you, Sadje. We’re on the slow gliding into the pale and icy season now, so I celebrate every shot of colour I can find to tempt my lens

I’m sure you’ll find something colorful to take a picture of in the winter too.

I bet you do! When I think of how many photos I have that never get shared…

I don’t like that they don’t get shared. I might return from a walk with 350 photos. And how many do I use? 24 for the 2 posts per week, plus some odds and those I use on twitter

I know what you mean. I told you I lost four years of images? I am heartbroken because I KNOW there were some in there I loved. I just have to mourn and have learnt from my mistake of not backing up. (Or doing like you, not only backing up but keeping all your cards.)
