I take a look at the range of bright Autumn (fall) colours now on show around Leicestershire. The days may be getting shorter and the weather cooler but with them come a riot of oranges yellows and fiery reds as the leaves change colour, My film focuses on the dance of the leaves as they are blown in the wind set against an increasingly stormy sky. images follow.

Poster design for Menphys Open Gardens 2011, Designed to promote an open garden event hosted by Her Grace, The Dowager Duchess of Rutland for the Leicester based charity menphys at Belvoir Lodge. The design incorporates the event information into the middle of a pair of ornate iron garden gates which have been opened to invite the viewer into both the poster & the garden. The typeface is of a bold style reminiscent of classic movie posters and is fully contained within the rectangular shape of the gate opening making for a design where the text becomes the most prominent feature of the piece. The poster also continues the theme of Ladybirds and Birds as featured on the previous poster for the oadby and wigston charity show, How many can you spot ?

This year I`ve had my greetings cards professionally produced by the people at Moo.com at around 80p a card including envelopes they are great value and the print quality is far superior to anything I could produce on my ink jet at home. The cards each feature an image from my Framed! collection on Flickr with a total of 4 designs on the theme of winter. What do you think ?
