A misty start to the morning, a morning much more in keeping with November. It was one of those cloying mists, damp and dark with a hint that up above the sky would be blue if only the mist would lift.
The sun did do its very best to warm the morning and break through the mist and for a short while it looked as if it would win, sunbeams enticingly bright between the Pines….
and likewise across the fields shafts of early sunshine teased us with what might come if we waited…..
But that hope soon faded as the mist descended once again and cloud cover increased to bring a darkness that would last for most of the day. But for December it still is a bonus compared to normal winter weather…..

Yes each season is a new discovery…only this year with un-seasonal changes it has been even better. Just hope it doesn’t catch up with us and deliver a severe winter!!

Love, love, love (is that enough!) the very first image, mist does do wonderful things to the natural world, but it’s the subtle colour in that image that grabs me.
