It is this time of year that many trees really do come into their own.
One of my favourite is the humble sumac tree, which has some of the brightest scarlet red leaves you could possibly find in the natural world. The ornamental cherry is another tree that shimmers with an autumnal glow while some of the acer family show off their colours before becoming a bundle of bare bits of twig.
I'd be interested to know your favourites...

Harvest time for the Obamas
It's great to see the First Lady take on the concept of "Grow Your Own". Check out these pics from the White House garden.
Some 55 varieties of herbs, fruit and vegetables are grown and there is even a couple of beehives. And, the best of the produce makes its way into the White House kitchen.
Perhaps the Browns should have a go at this - or are they trying to grow money in their garden - just like the advert!
