you have actually captured a beautiful autumnal scene when looking at the whole photo. Focus tends to be on the wee house but the background trees, colours, leaves on the ground at the sides of the wee hoosey are really lovely colours and could go into the autumn group !!

In SA we call that a rondawel, it’s an Afrikaans word and you pronoun the w as a v and as the Scotts do so well, you roll the r as well.
