After a glorious late summer in East Sussex, the year begins to sink softly towards autumn. The grass is cut for hay and the crops are harvested. In the pastel mornings, mist hangs in skeins over the fields. But the most exciting news from Lake Field is the arrival of some new residents: three Exmoor ponies! The ponies were preceded by a bit of work by the National Trust, including new fences and gates. While people are still able to enter the field, this infrastructure should keep loose dogs away from the ponies. The ponies seem to be quite a hit with passers by, who can often be seen leaning on the fence to watch them. I count myself amongst the gawkers - I'm pretty happy with our new neigh-bours! (I stole that pun from Dan.)

I love this idea of taking the same photo on different days, you can really see things change here :)

What a beautiful set of photos, such a good idea to catch the changing seasons. I particularly love the photo of the misty autumn morning-it's my favourite time of year. I'm also a massive fan of native ponies-Exmoors are amazing animals.
