Make the town look tidy.

A couple of pictures I took on my phone whilst out and about this last couple of weeks.

They capture Stevenage in autumn nicely. Being a new town, it has been built with lots of space and lots of trees. You get a strange mixture of rural and urban.

One thing you can’t get from these photos is the smell. A few days after I took these, I went for a walk when it had been raining overnight. The sharp, acrid smell of rotting leaves was very strong and very evocative of childhood winter mornings fishing.

I do love this time of year.
