Autumn 🍂 is arguably the best time to visit York. The colours in Dean's Park are absolutely gorgeous. I'm so grateful that October's weather has been so sunny and dry, after the dreadful Summer we had...

Some people call this the "spooky season", and I admit I hate that name. There's nothing spooky about Autumn 🍁: there are days getting shorter and colder ❄️, but there are nice crisp mornings and golden afternoons 🌇, walks in the rain 🌧️, a wonderful tapestry of colours on the trees 🍂 🍁 🍂 🍁, warmth and cosiness inside 🔥 🫖☕, and my birthday! 🎂 It's a beautiful time of year that deserves beautiful - not creepy, scary or bloody - decorations 🦊 🐿️ 🍄🖌️🎨🕯️🛋️📚🤎

Enjoy Autumn! And enjoy it in York if you can ;)

🇬🇧 Last Sunday the weather was beautiful and my lovely husband 💕 agreed to do a spontaneous photoshoot; he kept saying "What a shame I haven't got my camera with me!", because he's as picky as a professional photographer. We'll do a sessiom with the proper camera at some point, but I think these came out quite well! 📸
