stormy weather and the atmosphere of the familiar

When you walk out of the door in the morning, there is a chill, and it shocks you to your bones, and you can smell the decay. It's lovely. The trees are shedding their unwanted excess. And I should be too.

Everything was lovely walking home this evening. I wish I could go out for another walk tonight, but unfortunately I have a lot of work all due tomorrow, which is really very frustrating and I would rather not do it to be honest. Anyway, I took some photos, probably looking like a complete moron with my camera aimed at the sky. I just love the way the clouds look almost bruised.

And here's another photo from yesterday. I just really love the Autumn light and the way everything looks more beautiful when it's dead or dying.
