Before the world becomes wintry white outside I want to share the rest of my more or less colorful Autumn photos from this year with you.
Autumn Colors 2020
I took almost all of these photos from roadside out of the car while I was travelling from one photo location to the next. Some of the images might look familiar to you because I have already posted photos of these trips in the past weeks, but the photos I am showing here have all been waiting until I have edited them today.
During a trip through Italy and back to Austria over the Nassfeld Pass I spotted this beautiful curves a bit further down the road. The trees have already begun to change color, but it's only the beginning. A bit further down you will see this road again in a kind of pre-winter mode, and the trees have changed their colors much more by then.
12 days after I have made the first photos I have made about the same photo trip. The first photo shows a little lake just beside the road, which is called Bodensee.In the second photo there's a view back up towards the mountains at the Nassfeld Pass.
Our first snowfall in 2020 happened during the night to October 16. It wasn't much of that white stuff, but enough to give the now autumnal forest and the road a wintry touch.
Right after I drove over the Nassfeld Pass, I drove over the next pass road which is called Windische Höhe from where I could see this to me unknown mountain, but I liked the snowy forest and the clouds enough to take a photo.
Driving further the road I have seen these nicely colored trees in front of the snowy pine forest and the huge rain puddle showed a nice reflection of these trees.
I have one more photo of the same day: On my way home I made a little detour and could take this photo of the Mittagskogel mountain from a viewpoint over the Lake Faak (Faaker See). You can see a little bit of the lake on the left side and a little bit more at the end of this post.
On the other side of one of my favorite walking paths at the reservoir the trees have had their most beautiful autumn dress on and the calm water made a nice mirror for them.
Actually, I like this photo of the wet leaf on the road much better than the one I have showed in October. It still fascinates me how motionless the two flies were sitting on the leaf while I took the long exposure photos of the leaf.
On October 24 I drove to Styria and when I passed the Hörfeld Moor (moor, bog) near the village of Mühlen I couldn't resist to take a photo of this old tree between yellow-orange trees and shrubs. Next year I want to hike through the moor and hopefully find some interesting plants, flowers and insects :)
After my hike to the Black Lake / Schwarz See over the village of Verditz I had this view of the Gegendtal valley where the morning sun found a gap in the clouds, but the gap didn't last very long.
Right after I have taken the above photos on my way down to the valley I drove to the Lake Millstatt / Millstätter See. A few kilometers before I was at the lake there was this almost too colorful forest to the left side of the road.
The southern shore of the Lake Millstatt is almost unobstructed and pure nature. There are only a few houses on that side, which are not disturbing at all in my eyes.
Finally, during my hunt for the full moon at Halloween, I have been at the Lake Faak / Faaker See on November 1, and the fog over lake, village and the valley behind gave the scene a real nice autumnal look. Unfortunately, it was still quite dark in the morning, so the autumn colors are not that great to see, but in fullsize mode you can see it better.
So, that was all for today and for this week. I hope you enjoyed my review of the Autumn colors a little bit.
Tomorrow morning at 6 am I'll be back at my office desk and then I change to another office for the nightshift. So, I won't be back home until Tuesday afternoon, what means I leave home in November and will be back in December ;) But the time will run fast, I am sure, because there's a lot work which is waiting for me till I'm back from home office.
