Fall's fire and flare
There is no denying the effect of autumn's visual symphony and poetry upon the soul.
Whether great swathes of forests or parts of a single tree as seen here - the beauty and majesty of this emotive season never fails to impress.
'Fall, leaves, fall; die, flowers, away;
Lengthen night and shorten day;
Every leaf speaks bliss to me'.......Emily Brontë 1846
