An Autumnal wander around Eastern Bristol, UK

[thereyougo!]

Some from a wander down memory lane. My late mother used to take us out most days through the long summer holidays. It would all be on foot, and today I discovered it was about 6 miles - we did this 3/4 times a week for 6 weeks. Bristol in the SW of England has lots of great green spaces and much of it is unchanged since my youth...these are photos along the route...

GFX100s and the very lightweight and small GF 50 f/3.5 - when there was a rain shower I was able to put camera and lens inside my coat for shelter...

Nice set.

Very nice set, my favs are #2 and 7. Gotta say, #9 is pretty bold with the colors.

Nice set but number nine for me.....

I'm sorry the last one looks over saturated In my opinion )

Fair enough the sky is it a bit purpley . The reds of the eaves is pretty accurate so I used the new masking tool in LR to select the sky and reduce saturation there
