When we see the clouds rolling in,
when we see the rain coming near,
then we get ready for the big downpour:

Time for Hippos
Aesculus hippocastanum, that is, the common horse chestnuts.
Most chestnuts are still up in the trees, in their light-green prickly shell but some have already fallen and the smooth, auburn coloured chestnuts are lying on the ground. One of my favourite signs that autumn is here.

The Cosmic Photo Challenge: As summer fades
Framed
At the weekend we were at a family gathering. It was out in the country (if close to a village).
What would the country be without insects – flies to be specific?
The sky was blue.
The grass was green.
Like a picture.
Psychedelic, almost.

A Clear View
I keep coming back to this room for its view. It’s in Sunderland overlooking Roker Beach with the Roker lighthouse in the back.
Directly on the beach is a different window – the way marker for the C2C route which is a cycling route from coast to coast, or sea to sea, from Workington in the west to Sunderland in the east. It is shaped like a camera aperture – a window we are all very familiar with if we use (or have used) actual cameras.

All Washed Out
We were at the zoo over the weekend. The brightest animals were the flamingoes.
For the PPA Challenge I photographed a few kitchen gadgets. This is Tom, the tea bag holder.
Every day I am passing the local cemetery on my way to and from school, and every day I sneak a peek over the wall and there are four different colouring watering cans hanging next to the tap.
And then, the orchids are flowering.
