Autumn Colours

Autumn has arrived late in Armidale on account of the exceedingly warm weather we've been having and the relative lack of rain. So the deciduous trees have be putting on their Autumn colours much later than usual and those colours appear more intense than usual. Yesterday's temperature was, for example 23 C, which is the same as high summer in Britain, but the end of April is roughly the same as the end of October in the northern hemisphere

Anyway, Dot and I took a short drive this morning to photograph some of the lovely foliage we're seeing in town and I think you'll agree that the colours are quite intense. See for yourselves:
