You might want to note that the summer of 1940 was in fact hot and dry. While Setback's pictures are good colourwise, I don't think they are of southern England. They look to be of hedgerows in the southwestern region; ie West of Bristol. This side of the country is directly in the path of the prevailing winds and receives far more rain than the southeast: but the southeast is where all the major action occurred. A hot dry summer in southeastern England turns grass brown very quickly.

Whether there is any plan for weather-related changes to land colours I don't know - but from midsummer to October (1940) the land would only have looked more faded with every passing week.
