Trees on Fire!

Fire below the little landing window!

At the risk of droning on about colour, here I am doing another post on the Acer colour. It's just that it's positively on fire this autumn and each time I pass the little window on the stairs, a red glow floods in. It's like a ball of red fire shining in! For most of the year, this specimen is a dark plum colour and then, for a few weeks each year, it's like a beacon. Acers really are 3 for the price of 1! Spring colour, autumn fire and winter skeletal forms. What more could you ask from a single tree?

If you follow the link Acer Alley, by contrast; you'll also see a couple of shots depicting flocks of Goodman geese grazing in fields bathed in autumn sunshine.
