Simple August beauty

While it has been sunny on and off the last few days, I can't help feeling that autumn is in the air. There are berries everywhere and the hedgerows are particularly stunning. I have a particular favour, a very unassuming hedgerow in the lanes of St Andrew's that you could easily miss if you were in a hurry. Blackberries, red berries and honey suckle are all growing together around a cycling sign, a kind of back to nature combination, it made me smile and feel thankful for being alive...hoorah, it seems the darkness has finally lifted and I am noticing the simple beauty in life again.
