Autumn Light, Epping Forest. Autumn this year has been sadly quite disappointing, Drought in the summer caused some trees to shed their leaves early and a warm October & November means there are still many green trees about.

I TOOK A PHOTO OF MARS! I stayed up til the wee hours this morning when Mars was directly overhead, and used my 11" telescope and took about 160,000 images over a 30 minute period to get this: My best photo of the red planet so far!

Have you ever seen an oak tree dance?

Britain is full of 'lost' rainforests, predominantly in the southwest and northwest of England, western/northwestern parts of Wales and the west coast of Scotland. There are other areas where the conditions are perfect too, like this one in the Peak District National Park.

When the rain starts and the cloud base drops into the rainforest, the trees come alive. Everywhere you look, there is magic and mystery.

Inspired by too many rainy days in a row:

Day breaks to reveal
A grey and uniform sky
I’m longing for blue
