Autumn Tribute

30 May 2015: As we farewell autumn in Canberra we can reflect on what makes it so appealing. A kaleidoscope of colour, crystal skies and cool crisp mornings are just some of the reasons we love this time of year. The conditions have been perfect to enjoy all that Canberra has on offer from the opening of the balloon festival to the first sign of frost. While winter kicks off tomorrow we are still seeing traces of Autumn, especially along the foreshore where the ornamental pears are still on display.

I didn’t even have time to move and it felt like I was living in nature’s slide show. The mist began rolling in from the Molonglo River to create an awesome atmosphere. At one point I was watching shards of 3D golden beams burning through the mist. The scenery was that good that I moved at a frantic pace of 50 meters per hour. How could you not!
