An autumn narrative

A forecast of rain clearing with some brief intermittent sunshine and low winds before a more extensive weather front arrived presented the opportunity for a quick outing to simply capture autumnal colour in the woodland of the Forest of Dean. Wetted trunks of beech trees and leaves with contre jour lighting would be just the ticket. So a 10 min car journey, 10 minute walk from the car, set up, wait a few minutes for a break in the cloud and hey presto.
