Weather

I know it is very British to talk about the weather, but this is a strange one. We are forecast for very strong winds over the next couple of days the tail end of one of the American hurricanes. But today though we have had some very heavy downpours, not a breath of wind, maybe this is why they say “the calm before the storm”.

The noticeable thing now is the colour of the sky, it is very cloudy & overcast to such an extent we have had the house lights on for most of the day. Now though it has gone a very dusty, dull,  mustard colour outside while being bright on the trees, it is as though the clouds are acting as a huge filter for the sun, I can honestly say I have never seen a colour like it. A depressing, low cloud piece of scenery, that I am not sure I have fully captured in the two shots below. I have not post processed them in any way, so it is showing just what the camera saw, which is a very weird experience. Not sure if this is what the Doomsday Experience would be like, but it creates that sort of impression.

P.S. sorry about the electric pylon & cable , but it is there in such an awkward place that spoils the tree image.
