On the cusp of the Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness, in only a few week's time the onset of the Autumnal Equinox (this Friday I think) will set this scene ablaze. Huge crop. 200th/sec f/7.1 70mm focal length

Really pretty scene, Anthony. You're right...Autumn is just around the corner. It will certainly be pretty in your neck of the woods! This is just a personal thing, but I think I would like this better if about one third of the left side between the edge and the house was cropped out. I would like to see the house a little farther from "center." It's probably just me, but it is more pleasing to my eye that way.

Kathy, thank you, and I think you may be right. I DO find composition hard sometimes. I'm learning lots from the comments I get here, especially from ppl like you whose work I respect and admire.
This was a massive crop and I prolly felt gratuitous already! Still, as you have said many times before, who knows what is right and wrong - and of course there is no such thing.
Regards as always.

Allow Keats if you will ......
John Keats - Ode To Autumn
Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness,
Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun;
Conspiring with him how to load and bless
With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eaves run;
To bend with apples the mossed cottage-trees,
And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core;
To swell the gourd, and plump the hazel shells
With a sweet kernel; to set budding more,
And still more, later flowers for the bees,
Until they think warm days will never cease,
For Summer has o'er-brimmed their clammy cell.
Who hath not seen thee oft amid thy store?
Sometimes whoever seeks abroad may find
Thee sitting careless on a granary floor,
Thy hair soft-lifted by the winnowing wind;
Or on a half-reaped furrow sound asleep,
Drowsed with the fume of poppies, while thy hook
Spares the next swath and all its twined flowers;
And sometimes like a gleaner thou dost keep
Steady thy laden head across a brook;
Or by a cider-press, with patient look,
Thou watchest the last oozings, hours by hours.
Where are the songs of Spring? Ay, where are they?
Think not of them, thou hast thy music too,---
While barred clouds bloom the soft-dying day,
And touch the stubble-plains with rosy hue;
Then in a wailful choir, the small gnats mourn
Among the river sallows, borne aloft
Or sinking as the light wind lives or dies;
And full-grown lambs loud bleat from hilly bourn;
Hedge-crickets sing; and now with treble soft
The redbreast whistles from a garden-croft,
And gathering swallows twitter in the skies.

Haha Maureen, you fan of poetry! That is indeed a beautiful poem and as you guessed, one of my favourites.
