Hello and Happy Sunday to you ...
The prompt this week at Our Beautiful World is simply October
October has come on tippy toes here in my part of the UK ... probably because we had a late summer ... we are having a late Autumn too ... but the splendour is certainly beginning and it all starts with one leaf ...
... which in a matter of days became a blaze of red and golds
... and when the sunlight hits - it's glorious!
Once the leaves of this ivy fall ... there will be no trace that it was ever there ... until next Spring
Strangely enough the Lobelia is still in full flower
... and this next shot I took on my phone ... it's a local park and you can see just how lush it still is but with a hint of fallen leaves and some trees turning colour in the background
But my final photos are of a little bug I found outside ... and if he isn't dressed for Autumn - well I don't know what is!
I've no idea what he is ... but he is well camouflaged!
... Kinda looks like he should be on the X Factor
I'm really enjoying seeing all the photos you lovely bloggers are sharing with us at
Can't wait to see your October shots this week
Have a beautiful Sunday

Loving your pictures of fall and that little cute bug is adorable.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos, Ros. It is finally cooling down here as well. I saw several trees yesterday, their leaves were stunning. :)
ReplyDeleteGlorious colors!. Amazing how fast the color changes, do you get much snow in autumn, Ros?. Or only frost and rain?. That handsome bug is sure is dressed nicely :). Cool photos!!. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful fall pictures, Ros... And that little bug really is quite something! I wonder whether they change colors throughout the year.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful and gorgeous, those fall colors. The park looks peaceful and quiet, do you go there a lot? Thanks for sharing Ros, have a fun-filled sunday!
ReplyDeleteLove those beautiful pics Ros! Such lovely colors and Mr X Factor was the best :)

ReplyDeleteBeautiful fall photos, my friend... gorgeous leaves and that bug is truly amazing!
ReplyDeleteHe is a shield bug!
ReplyDeleteThere are lots of different ones. He looks just like a weapon of self defence in a battle. Doesn't he?
There are lots of them here, at various times of the year.
I once found one in a bag of ready to eat salad. Surprise, surprise!
