Creeping sepia

Creeping sepia: is a relatively new kigo. Alan Summers, winner of the first modern kigo contest, writes:

“A combination of the transition into Autumn (Fall) as Summer fades, and a mixture of climate change effects bringing out an urge for a nostalgia of historically fixed and clearly defined seasonal shifts of the past. This might also include childhood/family photographs that might have been in colour but now have a creeping sepia effect.”
