I suspect the crazily mild graduation into winter that we had here meant that the tree that usually goes brilliant red only went yellow and orange this year but I am loving the magenta leaf stalks!

孔雀不是甚麼稀奇的鳥, 去逛位於我家附近Ardenwood的農莊時, 每次都可以看到在樹叢裡鑽動的牠們!!!!

但那天要走出LA郡縣花園時, 抬眼看到這隻站在屋頂上的公孔雀, 擺出牠美美的姿勢, 漂亮的長尾羽毛在風的吹襲下捲捲又散開, 好像正在走show的模特兒似的亮麗而迷人.

Not the horror film ! Autumn leaves I shot the other day over a canal bridge near home. The turning of the leaves is here at last, autumn has been slow to start in our warmer than average temperatures.

On The Turning Away - Pink Floyd Live in Venice 1989

I love this music and the words express so much.

My daughter loves dogs.

So when we have the time we go to the animal shelter

to take a walk with an abandoned or neglected dog waiting for a new home.

This is Kita, a very sweet dog, she walked with great enthusiasm next to my girl but when we came at the turning point she refused to walk back, she just sat there and looked so sad ... it took a lot of hugging to get her walking again ...

I took is couple of days ago, you can see the leaf is turning to red. 秋天的紅葉正在蛻變中，有的可能成功，有的只能變成落葉了

"As long as the world is turning and spinning, we're gonna be dizzy and we're gonna make mistakes." (Mel Brooks) :-)

again, Babič's Mill on the River Mura in Slovenia but here I thought I'd have a go at long exposure to get motion blur in the spinning wheels; although the structure appeared to be firmly anchored, I would soon find out that the ship mill was in fact constantly swinging with the flow of water, however imperceptibly; this is the only shot (out of 5 tries) that turned out to be relatively presentable (with the help of editing)

The time to reflect on arriving at 3 score !

There is a huge squadron of Japanese Anemones in the garden at the moment, basking in the April sun. They love Autumn in Sydney.

.... the geraniums that I keep in pots in the porch begin to open as white petals, but then they turn a gentle pink, and finally a deep pink. These few flowers are at various stages of opening out. There's a link to the porch full of geraniums in the first comment field

For the "Looking close... on Friday!" challenge "Pretty in Pink"

Hoping that you have a happy and relaxing weekend

Acers of the Westonbirt. The range of colours displayed by the famous acer collection in the Westonbirt Arboretum is spectacular in autumn and attracts tens of thousands of people every year with October being the busies month. Old Arboretum, Westonbirt, Gloucestershire, England.

While beautiful, this dying leaf evokes a sense of poignancy in me as it is a vivid reminder of the turning seasons and that time ruthlessly marches on.
