MtLawleyShire and Matilda Bay trees

Taken over 2 visits – one a cloudy day with soft, uncertain light – typical look for Autumn though the day itself was humid and warm and unpleasant.  And then there was today: bright and brassy and warm but not humid, the loveliest of Autumn weather (though we need rain).

That Autumn is here is written in the plane trees:

 

I love teh sculptural attitude of these:

Banks of Autumn:

and leaves:

Today – a couple of weeks later: delicate gold.  I am wondering what will remain next time I go!

And then there are the other trees:

this one – tall in trunk and branch:

 

I love this tree – it is massive & photos don’t do it justice:

 

and these:

 

I do love the trees of Matilda Bay.
