'Autumnal Fire' From Colour Contrast Continuity

I planted my winter hanging basket to ‘gain on the swing’ ‘autumnal fire’.
The cyclamen will hopefully flower for many months and warm the entrance to my home and the winter violas will produce many different faces to give a smile to any visitor when they have been given time to grow...

I took my camera out with me this morning for the first time in many weeks.
I was determined to take photographs that would show nature always beats any attempt of mine to organise the decoration for the season.
