Oak Trees, wind & sky, nature at its best. Today while walking on a mild, windy, November Autumn day, I stopped and looked up at the beauty and wonder of nature in action. The leaves on the oak tree were starting to change colour from green to shades of brown, yellow and gold. The gusts of wind were making the branches move at various rates to reflect the surges of wind. As the wind blew through the branches the power of the wind was evident in the roaring sound. Higher up the clouds could be seen moving across the sky, giving the odd glimpse of blue. All of this happened in the space of one minute while taking time out to look up. Nature is wonderful and this one minute did not cost a penny and didn’t come off a screen, out of a packet or out of a bottle.
