Love that red tree and the green mossy trunk and branches absolutely fabulous, thanks Sticki, I love it, how many blogs take us to places where we have never been before!! What an incredible month this has been.

those huge trees looked majestic Sticki, and such a lovely array of colours too, just wonderful :-))

Some amazing photos, loved them all, you have certainly done justice to Batsford, excellent blog.

meadowland ~ we had a torrential downpour today but on tuesday there was a black cloud overhead but it seemed to pass over!

olive oil, yes i love autumn but i was born in the autumn ~ maybe im biased?

sorry stevie ~ forgot to warn you ~ actually i think your tree is brighter ~ and better.

How beautiful Sticki. Absolutely gorgeous colours.

Wonderful ! Such fantastic trees - their branches and autumnal leaves are beautiful :o)

Trees are so simple and yet awesome - I love them! Thanks Cinderella and hywell.

don't apologise for the flash Stick --it makes those leaves Gloww, so very beautiful....x

Dont know if that works Sticki..I was born on CHristmas day and HATE winter! Weel I do love the skies and snow from inside but hate being cold and dark nights!

Oh a Christmas baby! That's a bit special. No I don't suppose it works probably for every one that likes the season there is another who doesn't!

Yeah lol ;))))))

Really enjoyed your blog Sticki. Your photography is superb, thanks for sharing. I enjoyed walking with you.

thank you costas, pam and poppylover, you are very kind, i was a bit disappointed with the photos ~ i should have gone earlier in the day. although i do like that shot with the flash, inside the tree.

I think all the photos are wonderful and agree with Pam about the flash. The inside the tree shot is my fav.

Stunning set of photos, Sticki, thanks for sharing. I love the look of the house, too, is it open to the public? I will have to Google it!

Beautiful pics Sticki...:o)

Im not sure if it is Gee ~ in fact i have a feeling OH said it wasnt.
thank you joanella and gee.

Now, that's what I call an Acer - they're so stunning with their several trunks, even apart from the glorious autumn colours. Lovely to see.

I had a quick look on Google, Sticki, and the house wasn't mentioned - what a pity, it does look lovely.

wow beautifull colours, reds oranges, favourite time of year for trees, great photos sticki :o))

your an 'ACE ' - er with the camera Sticki. Some memorable shots here for sure.

Thank you bamboo, sanbaz and bampy. There were some beautiful trees there, it was difficult to know how to capture them - I took plenty of shots trying! Would certainly like to go back! They had a lot of trees for sale too but it was dark by then and the shop was shutting.

Hi Sticki ..
Glad you enjoyed your visit to Batsford :o)

Hi Terra, I did, thank you!
They also have nice cakes!

Batsford always makes me think of books .
I have some nice old Batsford dog books :o)

I don't know those, I will look them up. Is there a connection or is it coincidence?

Not sure ...

Lovely photos of lots of different autumn colours, enjoyed looking at them.

whoa! Sticky...what an amazing set of photos. I need to favourite this blog now so I can come back to it later....absolutely gorgeous..I can tell you love trees as much as I do!..thank you!! :))

What more can I say? You havent hidden your light under these bush-ells!, or trees lol!. Beautiful blog Sticki they are always a sheer pleasure to see.

thanks karen and tetrarch, apparently when i was still in my pram i used to wave at trees ~ so yes, its true ~ ive always loved them.

That was a brilliant Blog Sticki..........and fantastic photo's to go with it. I am loving the coat of many colours.

Yes, the coat of many colours is gorgeous . . . do you think it's a Parrotia persica, Sticki??

thank you pimpernel, i took loads of pictures of those leaves ~ sorry sheila I dont know what tree it is but it had amazing leaf colour!

Looks like a kind of Acer?

i think sheila means the one after the yellow daisy like flower, it looks like beech family to me????

Wow stickie, absolutely loved your pictures. You are so lucky to live in this lovely area.Those trees are amazing and your photography is brilliant.
