Look what I spotted today!
In mediaeval times autumn was a busy month for the women of a family. It was the last chance to harvest the bounty of the hedgerows, to gather berries, nuts and seeds, to dry and preserve for the long winter months.
I don’t think the berries above are edible, just rather pretty cascading between the remaining lace of the leaves.
Fall, leaves, fall; die, flowers, away;
Lengthen night and shorten day:
Every leaf speaks bliss to me
Fluttering from the autumn tree.

Beautiful image for Bronte’s words, Gilly
Beautiful, indeed! Love the color of the berries. 🙂
Love the image. Pleasing poem. ❤ ❤
Those leaves look as if a caterpillar has been munching them – just like my kale!
They may not be edible but they sure are beautiful!

A great photo, and a great title.
A picture perfect photograph of nature in all her glorious stages, Gilly.

Love your title, Gilly. Such a beautiful image too. 🙂
They are so very pretty .. But they have that look about them don’t they? 😃
They look too luscious not to eat! The leaf is a striking contrast in texture.
