1. We have the heating on for the first time in eight or nine months. The office radiator is dusty and we enjoy the comforting “smell of winter”.
2. The woods are misty and the setting sun is diffused. On the top path, I enjoy the light hitting the wet bark of an old oak tree (and our wet bark-er standing, well lit, to one side) while lower down, the rays are so golden that they’re breathtaking on their own.

3b. Three colours of peppers in a dish, speckled with pink prawns.
