Focus on the Foliage - Part 2

Before the rain showers arrive, followed by the wind.

As we all know - this is the time of the year that we all love to see the spectrum of colours. This is also the time of year that deciduous / broad leaf Trees will drop their foliage ready for the winter months. I find now is a good time to take a few more photos before leaf drop.

With UK Pottery becoming more and more popular Over the past few years, Accents plants have seen an increase in the UK.
