This period of the year always reminds me of Ungaretti's short poem “Soldati” (Soldiers): “Si sta come / d’autunno / sugli alberi / le foglie” (One is / as in the fall / on the trees / the leaves).

I particularly like the blue details of the church.
ReplyDeleteI would love to be sitting on one of those benches!
ReplyDeleteThese are both very nice shots.
ReplyDeleteYep, the old death and resurrection metaphor.
ReplyDeleteAutumn it may be, but at least the sun is still shining!
ReplyDeleteEn ce temps-là, la vie était plus belle et le soleil plus brûlant qu'aujourd'hui.
ReplyDeleteI like the autumn colors set against that blue roof.
ReplyDeleteThe hustle and bustle of a fall day. The merry-go-round never slows down it seems.
ReplyDeleteLooks like nature is taking care of those leaves!

ReplyDeleteThat first shot is just excellent and makes me want to stroll along with you enjoying the autumnal air and the other various sights!
ReplyDeleteThe trees are getting ready for a long winter's sleep.
ReplyDeleteIt is such a texturally beautiful time of year!
ReplyDeleteLots of scenes like this in Berlin right now too!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if there are any leaves on the trees now. The colour comes and goes too fast!
ReplyDeleteLeaves should be required to stick around for a minimum of 4 weeks after changing color.
ReplyDeleteThat street is going to leek a lot different when the leaves depart. It is probably the kind of street that has charm in each of the four seasons.
