    No love for Autumn in here this year? I suppose it has been an odd one, we're still getting fairly warm days and the strong winds have blown away load of the lovely leaves! I'm hoping for a nice Autumnal walk in the park with some sunshin and a crispness in the air this weekend. There is nothing nicer than being out in that kind of weather and warming up with a hot drink outdoors or getting indoors to get cost afterwards :)

    Unfortunately when I moved them from my phone to my computer (they were too big to post as they were) they lost some of their bright colours. I tried to fix them a bit, but they're not as nice. :o

    I'll post a few more in a minute. :)

    Really lovely New Home. I went for a walk in the park at lunch time - lots of golden leaves on the ground! Sadly there us a walkway that would usually be covered in Autumn leaves but I think I waited too long, the trees are bare and there were only the dry goldy brown ones on the ground. We went for a drive yesterday though and saw lots of Autumnal trees in carious shades of gold and red and green :)

    Did you get to walk through crunchy leaves? It's the best part! :)


    I was sweeping them up the other day, and I loved the swooshing sound they made when there were lots of them piled together. :)

    I walked through a few but the park staff are doing a great job of clearing them up and keeping the footpaths clear so not too many :D

    I can feel Autumn in the air the last few days, so lovely! Not too cold yet just a fresh feeling and a certain smell in the air. I love Autumn!

    Love Autumn, too !
    It is the season when I love being in the countryside, looking at the changing colours.
    Love seasonal food too, all the mushrooms, pumpkins, berries...

    I love rain if it doesn't create any problem for people. I also love the sunshine of winter, evenings of summer and greenery of spring.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,634 ✭✭✭✭Graces7


    confused in my old age; it is summer? or have i overslept massively....

    I'm loving the crisp winter days we've been having recently so nice (despite the freezing cold).

    I've come to realisation that autumn/winter is my favourite time of year too. Autumn and winter is so consistent (clothing-wise). I know I'll probably need boots and a coat in case it rains or it's cold. After growing up, waiting for summer, and the idea that summer is "the best time of year" - I realise it's not, at least for me.

    The summers are so inconsistent. In summer. it's really hard predict with accuracy the right clothing to wear. Last summer I didn't even buy summer clothes aside from what I knew I would use in a predictably hot/sunny climate on holidays.

    What I actually love about autumn is how beautiful it is. There's something magical about the changing of seasons. The colours are beautiful. It's not a time to pretend it could be warm a wear a t-shirt or leave without a coat. Nope. And I actualy love feeling prepared to go outside in the winter - nice warm coat, scarf, hat etc. Nothing better than defying the elements by preparting for the cold. I laugh at people that get stuck cold outside. OK, once, maybe. But we live a in a time where we have real-time weather delivered to our smart phones constantly. Weather apps, internet etc etc. There's really only poor excuses to be caught out cold in modern times. :D :P

    I also love being in the city centre at say 18:00. It feels late because it's dark but it's not. Love the lights at night too.

    Come the end of the winter, I'll be romanticizing the summer again. Because, essentially, too much of one thing can be depressing. Summer, will give me longer hours of natural light to shoot video and photography. So my hobbies are a little seasonal. But I like that.

    Cold crisp winter days are just the best. Something so calming and peaceful about them.

    Days like today are my favourite, I managed to get outside for my lunchbreak so I was very happy. Hopefully we have more days like this :)

    I went out for a walk on I think it was Friday morning, it wa fantastic out. Frosty, cold, a pink sky and the mist was just sitting on the grass in the park across the road. Fabulous. A few more mornings like that would be great!

    Can we resurrect this for this year? The poem -an ode to autumn- really does it for me !

    Took a lovely walk on Sunday in a nearby forest walk. Loads of cars there, everyone had the same idea as it was bright and the leaves were amazing!!

    Pic I took at the start of the walk :)
