The Burnished Moors

The heather's really fading now.  The lilac flowers are turning a pale, coppery pink.

While the scene in general is no longer as spectacular as it was a couple of weeks ago, the individual bushes are every bit as lovely in a different way.  Their new, burnished hue is so very autumnal - and I love the colours of autumn.

Earlier this evening, Joss and I lay on a bed of heather, surrounded by the dying blossoms.  The softening light filtered gently through the stems, making them glow.  Dusk is my favourite time of day and the promise of my favourite season hung in the air.

The moors have many moods.  This was a good one.
