I processed part of the captures I did this week; here is ten October photo etudes from the streets and local park.
The late rose of autumn. There are still plenty buds ready to blossom! They are not aware what cruel frosty and warm-less world they risk to enter.
A crow - our local, eco-friendly production. Not some "Made in China" imported product. She let me come pretty close - not a hand's distance but still.
Beautiful picturesque reflections in the water -
...I can push the trigger and take the same capture more and more and more ;)
In this corner of the pond, pond'line has a lovely cape from which a duck nest can be seen up close.
This spot is especially good for feeding the birds. This time, the ducks received the wheat bread, but the seagulls weren't indifferent to the free giveaway either, and in the end, several of them also arrived to take part.
A luxurious yellow carpet of maple leaves is everywhere. It's impossible to resist collecting a few maple leaves... acorns... smooth, shiny, inviting chestnuts... Autumn is harvest time! And even in the city, nature also brings a harvest—like this!
Let me round up my post with this portrait of a girl creating a maple leaf wreath. It might not be the best photo from the set selected but... it's such a traditional subject that I can't pass by and always become touched and stop and take a shot.
Thanks for walking with me, see you next time!
