This year somehow I deviated from my old routine and have not been on a normal photo walk, or photo hunt once. In other years I could hardly wait for the leaves to start turning yellow and was out photo hunting. A lot has changed in my life and I have to admit, I'm back to not quite walking blind, as I still notice the beauty nature has to offer and take photos every time I see something beautiful, but somehow my desire to go for photo shoots has diminished considerably.

This is definitely not the rout I'd like to take as photographing is important, so I'm going to work on getting my photo mood back and inserting photo walks into my day, especially when the weather is offering me something interesting.

This month should get the first surprise, as November is when I (maybe) have the occasion to have a few hours of fog, which is rare where I live. The place where to take photos is given, but the density of the fog has not been what I wanted for a few years. Needless to say, I'll keep trying, maybe pick a different location, not as excited as the initial one, but I'm willing to give up location for a nice, dense fog. Will see. Till then, let's see what I've put together for today.

Each place has it's own beauty and season as well. This is one of my favorite place during autumn.

I took these photos last month and today I wanted to take more, especially because the leaves are yellow already, so I headed there early morning, but looks like I have to wake up earlier. There was a guy blowing the leaves already. It was a bit upsetting, but I can only blame myself. On the other hand, who knows when these cleaners show up?

I love this place.

This is my lovely Siebold's stonecrop from my balcony.

The beauty of this flower is that it's green most of the year, then autumn turns it into what you see here. The leaves are becoming dark red and the flower is pink. Most of the year you don't pay attention to it as it's nothing special, but you definitely notice it during autumn.

Even though I wasn't lucky at my favorite place this morning, I was still able to capture these two photos. I have to appreciate what I get as contrary to other places, here the leaves are cleaned up pretty quickly, which is a good thing, unless you're a photographer, hunting for such scenes.

There's a place with a huge tree that I'm watching every year. Most likely I've already mentioned it before. When leaves turn yellow, it looks like a total AI fake, as that's hoe perfect it is. I've been planning to visit the place, passed by twice recently and forgot about it both times. Unforgivable sin and maybe tomorrow I'm going to head over there, to see if I've missed the occasion, or at least I can catch the leaves on the ground. Yeah, my focus is elsewhere these days.

Once these leaves are gone, I'm going to focus on what I usually focus on during winter, and that's dry things that still resist the cold. Small fruits, flowers, leaves, cobble web and so on, whatever I can find. Just need to make sure to allocate some time to finding them. Nature provides them each year, but no one is going to bring them to me on a silver plate :)

This is it for today. Let's see what you think and if you have autumn where you live. Let me know in a comment :)
