The beauty of Autumn so overwhelms me. Before the letting go and the inevitable floating descent, the leaves offer such a profusion of colour and form. What a way for them to die!
My name is Don Scrooby and I live in The United Kingdom. I feel that more than anything else, nature, and the objective things around us, convey a speech and a message we always need to listen to and follow. This kind of listening is life-giving and there is a certain form spirituality about it.
In this blog, through the the photographic image and accompanying words, I’ve tried to share this experience as simply as I can. There is an underlying beauty in nature we all need to see and experience, especially in this day and age as we struggle to save our planet.
Most of my shots are taken with a Fujifilm XT100 camera and my Iphone. I’m no professional Photographer, but I do enjoy outdoor walks with my simple gear trying to capture what I see and experience.

Yes, autumn is gorgeous. There’s such a concentrated last sigh of beauty.
The changing of the seasons has been transformative who I am. Peace and thanks for continuing to share your journey; it has been enriching and positive.
I love your autumn photo. I so agree with your sentiment, Right now a red squirrel is munching on an acorn and he’s totally camouflaged in the leaves that blanket the back yard. Enjoy the season, Don. And happy Thanksgiving. (I think you are in the US.)
Thank you, LuAnne for your thoughts. Appreciate your comment. Enjoy the season as well. I’m sure it must marvellous where you are. I actually live in the UK.
Picture perfect Don, there is just something about Autumn and this photo represents all that it is. Cooler temps with the rustling of leaves as they fall to the earth. I have so many good memories of walking through parks just like this. There is something so special about it.
Thank you Sandra. I agree with you, there is something about walking through parks, especially in Autumn. I remember as a child walking through the park and finding much joy in kicking up the leaves. loved doing that.
