Love the first photo of the church! And your tree looks lovely too!
Yes, I do too! I took that on the slow drive home from work. I'm not even sure what camera setting it was on, just that I was trying to get to one of the "vivid colours" settings and not sure how to do it, and trying to push buttons while stopped briefly with the car and making sure I didn't hold up the traffic while not wanting to miss the shot, either!
