Autumn’s little silver treasures 🍂📸

The delicate, papery seed pods of honesty caught my eye, shining against the green leaves.

This plant produces purple or white flowers in spring and early summer, followed by these distinctive silver “coins”. The seed heads can remain through winter and are often used in dried flower arrangements.

A lovely reminder that there’s still plenty to photograph after the flowers have faded.

Have you spotted these on your autumn walks?

A little splash of autumn colour in Bideford, Devon 🍂📸

These bright red berries caught my eye against the green leaves. Sometimes the smallest details make you stop and appreciate what’s right on your doorstep.

What’s your favourite thing about autumn? 🍁

There’s something quietly moving about a rainbow breaking over a churchyard. The old headstones here have stood through generations of North Devon weather, and watching a double rainbow arc down behind them felt like a small reminder that light always finds its way through, even on the greyest days. Buckland Brewer has a real stillness to it, and this spot in particular never fails to give me something worth stopping for.

Do you have a place near you that always seems to catch the light just right?

Getting this close reminded me just how much work goes on in a single flower head. Every one of those tiny florets is its own little world, and this bumblebee was working through them with real purpose, dusted head to toe in pollen. There’s something almost architectural about a sunflower up close, all those spirals and textures, and having a bee tucked into the middle of it made the whole thing feel alive in a way you just don’t notice from a distance. Springfield Farm has become one of my favourite spots for this kind of macro work.

Do you slow down for the small stuff too, or does it take a camera to make you look this closely?

A window carved by centuries, framing that impossible turquoise water at Tintagel. There’s something about looking through old stone like this, like the castle itself is choosing what story to tell you about the coast beyond. The layers in the rock feel like they’re holding onto every storm and every legend that’s washed through here.

Ever stood somewhere and felt like the view was doing half the work for you?

York Minster’s twin towers rising above a canopy of summer green, caught in that soft, dramatic light that only a heavy sky can give you. I love how the trees frame the stonework here, almost like the park is presenting the Minster rather than hiding it. Standing beneath those towers always puts things into perspective, centuries of history looking down on you while the clouds keep moving overhead like nothing’s changed at all.

What’s a building that’s ever made you feel small in the best possible way?

Found this piano hiding in the sunflowers at Springfield Farm, and I couldn’t walk past it. Years of scrawled names and doodles cover every inch of that purple and yellow paint, keys still bare and waiting as the sun dipped low behind the stems. Somehow it felt less abandoned and more like a quiet piece of folk art the farm had grown around.

What would you play if you found this waiting for you?

There’s something about the little things left behind on a beach that tells a story better than any posed shot ever could. This piece of driftwood on Instow’s sand caught my eye first, all twisted grain and weathered texture, but it was the details around it that made the scene: a beach spade waiting for the next dig, a coffee cup still warm from someone’s morning, and a small pair of shoes kicked off in that way only kids manage. Behind it all, a boat sits patiently on the mud as the tide works its way back out, and the hills roll off toward the estuary. Devon has a way of turning an ordinary afternoon into something worth stopping for.

What’s the last little scene that stopped you in your tracks?

There’s something almost cathedral like about this old railway tunnel on the Tarka Trail the curve of the brickwork, the warm glow of the lights against the cool daylight waiting at the far end. Walking through always feels like stepping back in time, following the same path the old Bideford to Torrington trains once ran. Whatever the weather’s doing outside, in here it’s all shadow, stone and that little pinprick of light pulling you forward.

Have you walked this stretch of the Tarka Trail before?
