The days are getting a little cooler - thank goodness - and the cloudless hot days of summer are gone. Some heavy clouds, mellowing the colour and tones, give rise to gentle tones that, frankly, can look a little drab on the web page.There are, though, compensations. This image here, late in the day on Sunday with the sun starting to disappear being the trees on the Longleat Estate would have been washed out in high summer, but now the threatening cloud give rise to a dramatic sky.
We took further pictures of Heaven's Gate while we were at Longleat, including the Longleat Stone Circle; on this particular visit, though, we didn't have time to make the lovely lake at Shear Water.
