Over here in the west, Autumn seems to take it's time. A couple of days ago we were still experiencing temperatures over 30 degrees. So far I haven't seen any red or orange leaves and the air has only just started to cool in the evenings...but something spectacular is still happening outside.
The leaves of the London Plane Tree don't turn red and gold, they simply brown on the branch and drop. But the halfway stage between these two points is stunning. It gives the leaves the look of weathered copper as if turned after years of being battered by the elements. The pale green grey appearance mixed with the creamy browns gives it a very unique look...
