    I raised the subject on another board and someone came up with the idea of a thread to post photos of the changing colours in our gardens at this time of year. So I thought I'd start one on here.

    My Japanese acers are just starting to turn, there will be a few days soon when they go that "burnt" orange colour befor the leaves fall.

    Already, this wisteria has turned yellow.

    Yet this one, where it benefits from the residual heat from the koi pool below it is "hanging on."

    Lovely photos. I will get out in the garden tomorrow and shoot a few. The local park was looking nice today, but that would be cheating to use those pic. Here is an older photo I took ages ago. It is a park in Maldon, Essex from last November.
