Wednesday, September 2

The temperature has fallen sharply overnight but the sky has not covered itself with rain clouds. Not yet anyway.

Man+dog head off into the woods to prepare ourselves for breakfast. The woods have a carpet of multi-coloured leaves as they have done for the last week or so. I photograph the floor as I stand on it.

Irma and I talked about this over the weekend as the garden filled up with flying leaves. We both believe that this happened a month or so later in previous years. It should not look and feel like late October at the end of August and the start of September.

Back Shanti and I go, and into a warmth that itself feels wintry.
