Tooting Bec Common: Fantastical Trees

Enjoy the autumn sunshine in large.
Extra: Cayuga colours and ripply reflections

I went to photograph my favourite tree (previously blipped here) glowing in its autumn splendour, but people had settled bikes and prams underneath it in its puddle of golden leaves, so I had to change plans and go for a characterful common scene rather than a portrait of the individual tree... I'll revisit it if it looks so splendid later in the week.
Then met a friend for coffee and ambled along to see if the Cayuga was about; it was, and it wasn't hiding, although the sun had dropped below the treeline, so it rarely caught the light to show of its iridescence at its best...
