Yesterday I had to go to the locker and on my way there, I had to pass one of the most beautiful places of the area. No matter what kind of season it is, this place is always beautiful. Winter is good for snowy branches and stairs, spring is special because nature is just waking up, summer is welcomed as the trees can offer you the shade and cool temperatures you need while climbing the stairs and autumn, well, autumn is the best for the colorful experience you may not have elsewhere.

There are three seasons when I go out photo hunting, which are winter, spring and autumn and the latter is my utmost favorite for the obvious reasons. October is perfect for a nice photo shoot, but you need to check when is the right time, if you want the leaves at a certain color and place, like on the trees or on the ground.

This was the scene that first caught my eye. The bike lane covered with leaves. It may be usual for you, to see roads, bike lanes or sidewalks fully covered with leaves, but not here. Cleaners come and sweep it as soon as possible and photo hunters like me are left without a good chance to take photos.

The ground looks like covered with a light brown carpet.

The truth is, there are many lovely places, but you're never going to get the perfect scene, so you have to work it out, find an angle to capture only what you want. There's a bike station on the left, that has been calling my name for a proper photo shoot, so yesterday I took some shots, but need to go back for more. The bin on the other hand is a disturbing element on the photo, but can't remove it.

This is what I was looking for and got it. It's not perfect as the seats are all over the place and I could not go adjust them to the same height, but it doesn't bother me as this photo was taken for fun and don't plan to participate in any competition with it. But I love it. The colorful bike on one side and the leaves on the other is just lovely.

The ideal scenario here would have been the walkway and the stairs covered by leaves, but that's not going to happen as cleaners come and clean it up.

Another thing I like to do is to take photos of leaves on ledges, gates and stones. This was a perfect place and I have more photos ready, even funny ones, but it looks like my daily allowance is up and I am left with 1MB till it is recharging.

I need to look into it and see what I can do, because as a photo addict, it is affecting me. One solution would be resizing the photos, but as all this is about quality, I'm not going to compromise on that. So I guess the rest of the photos are going to be posted another time. No cover photo either this time.
