Autumn has hit South Wales

[linda_joyce]

At least it has in bits and pieces, some trees think it is still summer, a very few are confused enough to think it is spring and are putting out new leaves, some think autumn has started and are just turning and one glorious Ash knows it is Autumn.



She, for the Ash is a lady in this part of the world has thrown off her dark green summer colours and put on her golden gown, There is a Beech on her left and a sycamore on ther right. The beech is just beginning to change into his russett suit.

here are several more thumbnails of the trees, just click the picture to enlarge. They are in the inside of the fence surrounding our local cemetery at the top of the field where I played as a child and where I now work my girls.

My goodness! They appear to be very close friends! ;)

They have been together since they were saplings, the cemetery opened about 1880 and the trees were planted about 1930 according to my grandmother.
