“Yorkshire had none of the color I'd known in Cape Town- the vivid pinks and purples of the freesias and arum lilies in the flower sellers' baskets. Yorkshire had none of the fragrant floral perfume, or the tang of salt in the air from the ocean.” FlowersYorkshireCape TownFragrances Book:The Cottingley Secret Source: The Cottingley Secret
“Yorkshire's autumn was as great a gift as Yorkshire's summer. I loved watching the rusting of the leaves while the dales mellowed to shades of ochre, and rose hips and blackberries grew deliciously fat on their branches. The morning mists were mystical and magical to me, and the rose-glow of the evening sun lent the sky a hypnotic light that matched any Cape Town sunset.” SunsetAutumnNature S BeautyVegetationYorkshireFall Colors Book:The Cottingley Secret Source: The Cottingley Secret
