Autumn in retreat

Apropos my post of a week or so back, it seems autumn’s been and gone already. Here’s a shot of our local park a week ago:

And here’s the same spot earlier today (althought there are still some leaves on the trees):

It’s been a strange few weeks – only a month ago you could get away with wearing a T-shirt and the leaves were still green. We wake up this morning to find a clear, crisp day, most of the leaves gone and a layer of fine snow dusting the rooftops and gardens around us.

My favourite weather, by far. The snow’s mostly melted now, but the sky’s still clear and the sun’s out.
