Nice capture of the fallen leaves. Quite interesting to see a scene like this coming from Qld, not quite what one expects. Did you chance upon this, or is it a known thing of yours?
Regardless, a perfect example of what is possible with camera movements, what's next Maris, a snow scene?
With regard to Autumn and Fall, I'm currently reading in dribs and drabs, a book published in England circa 1850.
The book uses Fall, not Autumn. Twenty six sheep, is written, "six and twenty sheeps." Which essentially shows the German roots of our language with the numerical switch-a-round of modern English being immediately obvious to a modern day reader, while the plural form of sheep in this book has an "S" at the end.
On our Icelandic visit in 2017 we spent an extremely interesting afternoon at the Sheep Museum, which is founded and run by a retired Icelandic school teacher who specialised in languages. We learnt how modern day scholars wishing to read English written before 1100 or thereabouts, need to understand Icelandic as it is apparently the closest modern language to English in England pre 1100, it seems. He conducts a tutorial for people who came from various parts of the world once a year to give them an idea of how to start translating old English. I suppose computers will do the reading/translating in the near future, if not already.
Fun fact. Did you know that the Icelandic sheep is the smartest sheep in the world. There have been old and modern recorded instances of Icelandic sheep saving human life in storms over the past 1000 years in Iceland.
