Capturing September # 071630 - # 08/231

To be honest this is one extremely rare "misty September sunrise - 2008". This year the conditions have been wrong, but we can hope that perhaps October will bring some more early morning delights.

It's too early for a "lone figure" to take its place on the seat (I waited for 3 hours, but none came ;-) Ho, Ho)....but it's already "Rush Hour", as you can see by the trail of cars on the main road. The photo is far from being a "stunner", but then this September has been quite disappointing. Today, the "endless" grey clouds are back. Can we hope for a "Golden October"?

The view is looking across Ham Common towards the Petersham Rd.

  1. Lovely spot to sit. My first thought was "why isn't anyone taking advantage of this bench"!

  2. Je ne sais ce que tu en penses, je trouve que l'automne est très précoce cette année. J'ai remarqué aujourd'hui que les tilleuls sont tout jaunes et perdent déjà leurs feuilles.
    Il y a deux ans nous avons eu un merveilleux automne tardif... L'automne est ma saison préférée, quoique j'aime aussi beaucoup l'hiver et le printemps.
    ;o)

  3. Nice atmosphere - seems to capture the temperature and dampness that we love so much about the UK climate.

    Believe it or not Chucker, but I have started yet another photoblog, and my latest post is a bit misty-september-ish as well

  5. The mist adds the quite and reflective mood to the scene, Chuck. I prefer your yesterday's post though. It's grand.

  8. Beautiful capture of mist and that light on the grass. Love those fallen leaves. I remember autumn exists when I see this! Something beautifully languid about the photograph.

  9. Seems to still be early morning on your photo! How early did you wake up?

    As said above, I have also a feeling of early autumn this year. Yes, hopefully with some sunny days!

  10. Yes, someone should be sitting on the bench, perhaps crunching on a nice red apple! Lovely!
