autumn leaves

Loathe as I am to admit Summer has passed us by it’s time to face the facts.

And so as the leaves change colours we’d like you to send in pictures of them to images@the-riotact.com .

Thanks to Brian for this one.

Autumn in Canberra is a very beautiful thing. My favourite season for sure. Can`t wait to see some of natures finest art.

I think we’ve had enough dud “mild” fizzer winters. When was the last time Canberra had a decent snowfall?? 1986? 1987?
