I have a real fondness for leaf shadows
And vivid sunshine colours
But on a misty rainy day, the berries look better
Gleaming in the fog
Verena at Festival of Leaves has some glowing colours this week. We’re clinging on to ours for dear life!
Festival of leaves
So much rain and mist you are getting at the moment Jo, but when the sun comes out it just makes the autumn colours glow.
I wouldn’t want to be a sheep right now- that’s for sure 🙂
Me neither
You said a little fog and rain just for me haha However the sunny colours are just as wonderful. Love the berries and sheep! Thanks so much for sharing these beautiful photos!
A LOT of rain this past day or so, Verena, but all still beautiful 🙂 Thank you!
The leaves are half-gone here now–another type of beauty, especially in the sunshine and shadows. Your berries dripping dewdrops (or is it rain?) are gorgeous.
It was rain and there was more of the same in the Lakes but very beautiful x
Beautiful festival of leaves! Love the berries and sheep. 🙂
Thanks Amy! Had a lovely day or so in the Lakes. Damp but beautiful x
I love the photo of the berries, with the water drops on them. I think your phrase ‘gleaming in the fog’ sums things up perfectly!
Thanks Elaine. Damp in the Lakes but beautiful xx
Lovely pics. Autumn is a great time of year for photography, isn’t it?
Beautiful! Thanks x
Oh, beautiful autumn! I love “gleaming in the fog.” 🙂
It was totally fabulous for colour over in the Lakes, Cathy, even though it was pretty damp. Thanks, darlin’ 🙂
If only I could reach in and grab one of those berries! Gorgeous looking.
Grab away! 🙂 You never know!
I love shooshing through fallen leaves. Now I shall look for their shadows.
It’s gentler on the legs, Viv. 🙂 Long may we continue to enjoy the little things in life!
I’ve just come home after physio, which was anything but gentle on the legs!
Yes cling to those beautiful leaves Jo! Love the sheep mist and all.
We are promised a deluge today, Sue, so they’ll all be floating off soon :(. Have you escaped the snow to Mexico? 🙂
The snow melted and on Sat we are supposed to be up to 12 C ! The Mexico trip isn’t till Xmas so a ways away just yet.
Stay dry! 🙂
Such beautiful leaves Jo and those berries look so inviting. I love the drops on them. Gleaming in the fog is my absolutely favourite. 😀
I took some nice foggy shots for you, Sonel, but they didn’t all fit with this post. 🙂 Happy days!
Oh, that sounds awesome Jo and no problem. I am sure I will see them at some stage. 😀
Happy days to you as well darling and are you enjoying your birthday? Eat a big slice of cake just for me please. ❤
Had fabulous scone with jam and cream, overlooking the lake xx
Now that is awesome sweetie! Sounds like the best start of a birthday ever! 😀 ♥
So beautiful leaves, Jo. Looks like gold hanging off those trees. Also love the sheep photo. That sheep is looking straight at you, probably wondering who you are and perhaps he or she wanted to make friends. Hope you had a lovely day 🙂
It was a bit miserable for all those sheep but they didn’t seem to care. Nice woolly coats, I guess 🙂 And no shortage of grass. The simple life! 🙂 🙂
Lovely lovely photos. I think I especially like the softness of the last one. It’s grey and foggy here in Vancouver – better get out the camera!
Alison
I’ve taken a few nice atmospheric ones lately, Alison (no shortage of fog to practise in 🙂 ). All set for a downpour today. Might be a bit more tricky 🙂 Thank you!
Each of your photos shows how lovely things can look no matter the weather. 🙂
Thanks, Karen 🙂 It’s been a lovely Autumn but reality beckons.
As it always does.
Loved the sheep in the mist! And the berries! We are having a leaf dump this week – losing the last of our color. Dang!
Damp and more damp here. I think that’s it for another year but it was lovely. 🙂
The leaves are beautiful! I love your photo of the berries Jo.
It’s a little out of focus but I loved the colour, Colline. 🙂 Thank you!
… happy birthday eve Jo 🙂
Loving the berries … and damp sheep ….
I misread that as ‘happy birthday to ewe’, Poppy! 🙂 🙂 Thanks so much! I will be dripping damply in the Lakes. 😦
Surely not Jo …. come on now … no pressure as it’s your B’day but … pics will be expected 😀
Seriously though .. am sure and hope you’ll have a marvejols day damply dripping or not !
Simply stunning, you capture autumn perfectly, in shadow and mist and it’s beautiful colour. Love these photos Jo 🙂
It was a lovely season, Sherri. I think we’re about to be deluged but it was good while it lasted. Thanks, darlin’. 🙂
Yep…nothing but mist and damp, but not that cold. Wierd… !
A little Meg tells me it’s your birthday sweetheart! Have a very, lovely day whatever you do and I hope you get spoilt – I suspect it’s tomorrow? x:-)x
Yes- I will be in a very wet Lake District Gilly! Bad planning, I suspect, but I’ll make the most of it. Many thanks, hon 🙂
Oh wow, I’ve never been because I suspect it’s a bit damp for me, but its pouring here right now too. Cake is the answer, have fun and bring back the photos 🙂
So funny – Yvette Prior has just sent me a big slice to go with my glass of white 🙂 Hugs, sweetheart!
Well then how about a lovely ripe brie and some of those very black sable grapes that are in season now x:-)x
non si sa bene se siano foglie, farfalle o piccoli acquiloni, nell’autunno non fanno tristezza ma allegria…una piccola nota di tristezza la mettono le pecorelle smarrite nei prati della nebbia!
No snow yet so I’m still smiling, Ventis. Sending hugs 🙂
Really a great post!
Thanks, Anna 🙂 🙂
Lovely shadow patterns and misty sheep checking you out there! Hope you manage to get a few pictures tomorrow 🙂
Sheep, goats, swans… it’s been one of those weeks. 🙂 This isn’t one of them but I have managed some quite nice atmospheric foggy shots lately (was there a choice? 🙂 ) so I’ll try my best.
Must confess I haven’t stirred. Eyes glazing over reading insurance policies…
Ugh! 😦
Exactly…
Obviously the leaves and berries are beautiful, but those sheep are real cuties, cool photo ! 🙂
I don’t often feel sorry for sheep, Gilly, but it was a bit dismal that day. 🙂
Lovely autumn images, Jo. Love the sheep and the berries. 🙂
Not my best ever image, Ad, but atmospheric. 🙂 I had some lovely foggy swans too but I couldn’t really fit them with the theme..
Foggy swans will always keep for another time. 🙂
Oh such beauty! Miss the fog and the berries 😦
It’s ok in moderation 🙂 Are you joining me with Rotterdam 2 on Monday? 🙂
Of course I am! Wait, I think I’ve already” pinbacked” my Rotterdam 2 to your “mountain goats”. Gotta go check to make sure 🙂
I haven’t received a ping but it doesn’t matter. I’ll follow you there from here. 🙂
It’d be my pleasure, Ma’am! 🙂
Wonderful colors captured, even the sheeps are impressed… 😉
Ah, them sheep are a pushover 🙂 Nothing else to do in a field all day! Thanks, Drake 🙂
They are important for the moor, much more than we people are… 😀
beautiful images, Jo! 🙂
Thanks, darlin’ 🙂
Beautiful pictures
Cheering myself up in the gloom, Dawn 🙂 🙂
Die Blätter fallen, erste Nebelschwaden künden die dunkle Zeit an…
Gutentag, Ernst 🙂 Danke!
cudne,wspaniałe fotografie !
Dzienkuje bardzo 🙂 🙂
love these photos- especially the little lambs!
They were lost in the fog, poor things 🙂
Beautiful, Jo!
Thanks, sweetheart 🙂
Outstanding captures.
Goodness! Thanks a lot 🙂
Great post
Thank you 🙂
welcome
Leaf shadows! I’ve never thought of this! A new thing to look for, thank you! (BTW….photos gorgeous!)
Thanks a lot! No shadows today. Lost in gloom 😦
