Allestree Lake …. Early Morning
Early morning on the 21st October and just a tad more colour hinting that autumn is on the way…..summer isn’t going anywhere without a fight. To prove the point the Ash trees and the meadows plus the countryside beyond are still lush green, still glowing despite some possible storm clouds….

There is some colour in the hedgerow courtesy of an imposter, the American Rufus Oak

Not to be out done the Russian Vine is competing for the honour of being the reddest kid on the block….
