This week Patti gave use the prompt Subjects Starting with the Letter – S for the Lens-Artists Photo Challenge.
I quickly had a long list of ideas for the challenge and was considering a couple of different themes to build a post around.
When I realised that one set of three photos were taken in different seasons I decided to go with a set of four photos, one from each season.
