collecting




We've been collecting a lot of things this autumn.   Beautiful treasures in our city spaces and we've had time to stop and look at the detail of each one.   The rings on the smooth surface of the chestnut coloured conker.    The fallen acorns nestled in their little cases, balanced on stick thin branches.   The leaves, turning from green to yellow, to orange and red and brown.   We're soaking up the colours before they go underground and we have to wait again.
