The other morning there was this weird orangey light. It was like the whole of outside had an instagram filter applied to it. It made me want to blink hard to try and re-configure the light, it didn’t seem right. I remember years ago when there was a massive dust storm somewhere in central Europe ( im a bit sketchy on the details!) but where we were living at the time in the south east of the UK..there was a light covering of red dust on everything and the colours around at that time reflected it. It was bizarre, like being inside one of those seaside sand shakers.
It was a nice light this morning of orange..but it felt odd…my eyes frantically sending messages to my brain along the lines of ‘the sky is supposed to be blue, this is ALL wrong!’ Our brain has its colour pallet and when things don’t quite fit into that it sort of goes into a mad scramble to sort it all out and make sense of it. The sky should be blue, the grass should be green, that fence should be brown etc etc….
I like the colour orange, its such a cheerful colour and so fantastic at autumn time, so many different types of orange just in the trees…but when the light gets involved too….
Its a little bit special…you just have to tell your eyes to go with it….
Love the tree climbing photo, that looks like my sort of day out!

WOW. WOW. WOW. I just love your photography! Lovely that you themed this on orange – Little A – currently sat on my knee – loves the pumpkin picture, while I love that last photo – the colour of those leaves – WOW.
Wow, I love the oranges of autumn. Particularly like your leaf photo.
Orange is the autumnal colour and you have captured it beautiful in all your great pictures. The pumpkins are my favourite they all have such character.
