Some autumnal colours at Joruriji

After some busy weekends I had some spare time this week so went back to Joruriji to see if the trees had got their autumn colors yet. A few trees are starting to turn red but the maples are still green. After a shot cold spell the weather had warmed up again with clear blue skies.

There are still some flowers in bloom so I tried a shot of the backlit flowers with the autumn trees in the background.

I think it will be a few more weeks before the trees really turn in this part of Japan.
