A couple of late autumn images from nearly a decade ago…I was amazed to note the dates on these (2008), I really hadn’t thought it was so long ago…
A faint glow of early evening sun on the stones of this old castle:
The door in the tower, Scotney
…and a most autumnal glow on the castle and it’s reflection here:

What a splendid pair. Each a portrait of a different Light. The reflection is a bonus making three photos! Hope your weekend is equally splendid.
Glad you like these, Meg…thanks for a most enthusiastic comment! I’m having a quiet day in tomorrow as we are told it’s going to be stormy. Hope you have a good weekend – hugs from me 😊
Really beautiful Sue.
Thanks, Robyn – glad you like them
These are beautiful, Sue.

Thanks, Janet – much appreciated 😊
So lovely, Sue. The second one is really breathtaking. 🙂
Thank you, Sylvia. It was one of those ‘perfect’ times, when I arrived at a time of day with just the right light!
Both good shots, Sue, but my favourite is the door to the tower.
Many thanks, Tom…it invites you to climb the stairs and go in…not possible!!
The lighting on the castle is superb! Very subtle.
Thanks, Tom! Glad you like this
Adore the second pic…..!
Seems to be popular!
The castle reflected in the lake is perfect. Like one of those photos you always want to take.
Best wishes, Pete.
Yippee, and I took the picture 😊😊
Oh, such heartwarming shots. Looking back on my own pictures I see 2008 was a good year for autumnal photos.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed these 😊
Wonderful
Thank you! Much appreciated
I keep meaning to write a post about Scotney, but so far I haven’t. Your post made me look up when it was we visited and it was in 2010! We still lived in Surrey then. Crikey, so much has happened since then. The warm light on your ruined castle is lovely. Mine are much whiter, but I do have some lovely reflections and some of the boat house, also lots of decaying flowers! We were there mid afternoon in early September on the way home from Canterbury I believe.
Goodness – Surrey in 2010, then Shropshire and now Cornwall….gypsy stock, Jude?? Sorry, couldn’t resist….
I have been on the move since I was born Sue! Boredom? Wanderlust? Love of moving? No, definitely not the last one! I did a count of the number of houses I have lived in since birth and it came to 26 plus several temporary places where I stayed with family.
Wow! I’ve moved a certain amount, but rather less than half the number of times you have!
I did stay in one house for 18 years, so many of the others were quite short. We rented in SA so moved a lot.
Oh, OK…that explains it!
I wouldn’t want to buy and sell that many times!
Be more than a tad expensive in fees!!
Lovely shots Sue. They work so well as a pair; the first giving just a hint of glow on the stone and the second quite radiant 🙂
From hint to radiant…I like it! 😊
Where do the years go? The reflection photo is stunning. I think I might have dropped my camera in the water at the excitement of seeing it!
Which reminds me did I mention I dropped my iPhone in sheep droppings in Ireland? Hasn’t been quite the same since. 🙂
Oh dear! No, you hadn’t mentioned it!
It survived but doesn’t like to be charged up. well that will teach me to hang on to it a bit tighter.
From such things we learn!
Beautiful, I’m guessing it was golden hour in the second photo. You’ve caught it too perfection
Golden hour indeed! Glad you like these, Pauline
The second picture of the caste is perfect.
Thank you! 😊😊
Pingback: Glow: Passage – What's (in) the picture?
Oh, they are glorious…and the last one is just perfect on the wall!
D’you know, I still haven’t printed it!
;-D
These are lovely! Keepers, for sure. 😊
Thank you, Irene 😊
Mesmerising… I love it 😍
Many thanks! 😊
The door is wonderfully mysterious, but the second photo is fabulous!
I would have loved to have seen behind the door! Glad you like these, Gilly 😊
Stunning, Sue. Absolutely!
Many thanks! A good afternoon’s work some years ago!
A rewarding afternoon!
Absolutely!
Beautiful Sue!
Thanks, Adrian!
The autumn sun really does give a special glow, doesn’t it? You’ve captured this beautifully in your photo. Thanks for sharing! I have a poetry blog here on WordPress and this week’s poems are all about autumn in case you have time to look? Have a good day! Sam 🙂
There are two images! Glad you liked the one you saw, I’ll pop over to yours
Yes I saw both – liked the lower one best :0
My favourite!
So beautiful from this heritage.
I was just so lucky with the light!
