Weekly Photo Challenge : Fall

The Weekly Photo Challenge is always that: a challenge to come up with something different, thinking “out of the box”. The Challenge title this week is FALL.

I have been away on a well earned break this last week in The Forest of Dean, which is on the Welsh Border, a beautiful part of the Country and great for walks. The trees are just turning wonderful shades of amber and red through to yellow and the bracken is developing a lovely rusty colour.

I had a great idea to turn ‘FALL’ into a two in one photo challenge and that was to take a photo of a leaf falling from a tree that was turning due to the Fall, or Autumn as we call it in England. Easier said than done! I am still at the novice stage with my SLR and despite discovering how to use the continuous button, and numerous unsuccessful blurred attempts, I failed to capture what I wanted so my contribution to ‘FALL’ is the bracken.
