Too dry too hot

The leaves have already withered or fallen. There will be no colorful autumn. We still have heat and nothing will change in the near future.

Wonderful composition

Lovely shot! Wishing you cooler wet weather. I'm thankful we're down in the 80s this week but no rain for over a month now.

[Lesley]

It does seem a tad early but those conkers are very well developed

[Rob Z]

Such a sad sight..

[Peter Dulis]

nice

[Suzanne]

Your weather really does sound ominous. Your photo captures a worrying sign. We are, by contrast, having a very early spring that is also worryingas it likely means a hot summer.

[Kathy]

It's a shame.

[Heather]

Great textures and dof, but...a very concerning sign! I really hope your heat wave breaks soon (but it won't be soon enough, I know) Fav

[Shutterbug]

Fall is coming quickly. Hope the coolness follows soon.

[Beryl Lloyd]

A tad early - but nature will do its own thing at its own time !

[Corinne C]

Nature is suffering. Great clarity in this image.

[Renee Salamon]

Great capture - nature’s patterns are definitely changing

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Definitely looking a little crispy- but hanging on!

[Barb]

Great clarity! Sorry about your continuing heat, though!

[Diana]

Fabulous capture of these great colours and textures, pity they are dying due to a heatwave! Nature can be cruel too.

So well shown in this capture

[Christina]

What a shame, but a great shot

[Wylie]

Sad to miss out on autumn colours

[Brian]

Wonderful image. Sad about the continued heat. Stay safe.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Poor thing. Makes for a great image, though.

[Judith Johnson]

Nicely captured, but what a shame

[bkb in the city]

Nice shot

[carol white]

A super autumnal capture. Fav 😊

[Margaret Brown]

So sad to hear but a super image.

Nice sharp detail - this could also be the disease that is affecting our horse chestnuts - whereby they wither and die well before their time
