How Beautiful the Leaves Grow Old.

'How beautiful the leaves grow old.  How full of light and colour are their last days' John Burroughs.

We've had rather a long run of gloomy days and more than an unusual amount of rain.  However, we had a brief respite this morning so I nipped into the garden and took a quick shot of my hostas, now turning beautifully golden and brown as Autumn performs her miracle on them.
