A WALK IN THE FOREST

It has been a wonderful autumn so far, with plenty of opportunities for walks and wonderful trees and foliage.  

A few days ago we went for a walk around Rhinefield Ornamental Drive, one of my favourite parts of the New Forest - I grabbed the opportunity to take some photos while the sun was shining.

I am linking this to Color Me Weekly and Mosaic Monday.

A WALK IN THE NEW FOREST

We went for a lovely walk in the warm November sunshine this morning and I collected some treasures to photograph.  It gave me an excuse to use the wonderful marbled paper I found in an antique book as the background.  I think it works really well.  The lichen seem to have an underwater feel - might be a starting point for some seaside themed art work in the future.  The toadstools were photographed on the insides of old books and I really like the foxing marks on the background of the last two photos as it reminds me of the marks on leaves as they start to deteriorate.
