autumn color

As with most blog events, I seem to have missed autumn color week. But there's been plenty of color about, including rich browns at Petersham,

and more flamboyant reds and browns at Kew, on the trees

and in crispy piles below, perfect for a good shuffle:

There's been orange, too, including bushfuls of berries on the way home from the station

and pumpkins and butternuts piled high on the counters and in the shed, ready to be made into squash-y soups and sides--just the thing for perking up a chilly (and now gray) autumn day.
