FMTSO/Skywatch: Blowing in the Wind

Today I decided to do a “proper” Friday Shoot Out, i.e. take the camera out for a walk (on Friday afternoon), to see what I could find blowing in the wind.

The “problem” was, there wasn’t that much of a wind…

Often it’s quite windy on my balcony, but today I could even sit out there reading for a while in the afternoon sun, just wearing jeans and short sleeves. Not bad for 20th September.

Not much for the wind to blow on here! (Don’t ask me why ‘they’ cut everything off this tree. I have no idea. I only noticed it today as I was passing.) As you can see in the background, most trees are still green.

They’ve added a sandbox to the playground since my last visit to this park. But the sand was not blowing about (and that blue carpet is still staying mysteriously put as well).

Possibly a slight flutter of wind through my hair (?)

One “Painted Lady” did indeed flutter about enjoying the flowers. But she hardly had to struggle against the wind.

The rowan berries are red, but the leaves still green.

Some of the maple trees have started to shift colour just a little…

… but the few leaves dropped were lying rather tidily along the edge of the street. (I’m showing off my new shoes.)

Well, finally I found something blowing in the wind!

Now I’m curious what others may have found…
