Scorchio!

Another Monday started with a half hour delay, a drive through grey drizzle and fog, the car temperature gauge showing 5°C and the heating on.

To my amazement, I left work under a cloudless sky, 17°C in the car, the air conditioning on ... and stationary traffic. Three out of four's not bad though, it's better odds than Meat Loaf ever got and he allegedly did OK for himself. And to be fair the traffic cleared pretty quickly in the end, but not before I got the chance to snap this colourful autumn tree against the bright blue late afternoon sky.
