I'm in love. How beautiful are these landscapes where it's winter up in the mountains but autumn amongst the trees? Where the air is so fresh but not too cold and all you can hear is the leaves rustling from just a slight wind. I've never seen anything quite like it... This was possibly my …
A Change in Season with the Lone Elk
I've just come back from a short drive around a few of mine and Jonny's favourite local spots in the national park.
