An English Autumn

An October day in Whitworth Park, Manchester...
I'm lucky in that the park is only about a 20 minute walk from my house ...
 
... and that there's a wonderful art gallery right next to it, with floor to ceiling windows so you can admire the art of nature as well as the art on the walls.   
 
When I visit an exhibition I like to walk home through the park, especially when it's a warm, clear day and the trees are displaying their autumn colours ...
I took these photos for my friend Luthien from Altered Alchemy. She lives in Malaysia but studied in Manchester some years ago. I think she misses the autumn colours (though to compensate she has much better weather!)
Happily, the topic of autumn also coincides with this week's Inspiration Avenue theme - click here to see more autumnal submissions.

Happy Sunday!
