My World Tuesday - My Rainy Autumn Saturday Morning


I have labelled this part of my world "Doggywalks":
Saturday morning strolls with my dog through the neighbourhood!
Vienna, 1st district!
Join me on this rainy autumn day,

with rain heightening the colours of the fallen leaves :)


So please settle back and ENJOY!























Haha, George Clooney guarding Ringstraße and Stadtpark!

Hello maria!
wow! every pictures are wonderful.
and they make me surprise.
because two kinds of trees in your pictures are really familiar in Japan. I had thought these trees are trees that glow only in Japan!

Nice occupation!
Leaves hunt with dog.
Who says that our Capital weren't green anymore? We preserved some nice natural places, enjoyed even under the rain.

Arija said...

What a superb walk Maria!
There is great magic in the air on a rainy autumn day, the smell of wet leaves, the splish splash as you walk along and the light, moisture laded and embracing the remaining golen 'Thaler' on the trees.
Your walk was poetry in motion.

Wunderschoene Herbstbilder.Auch in den heruntergefallenen Blaetter ist immer noch eine stylistische Schoenheit. Ich habe den goldigen
Ginkgo biloba gesehen. Meine Tochter hat gerade einen gepflanzt. Es nimmt mich Wunder ob er hier auch einen "golden glow" bekommt? Ich habe alle die Detaile die du gefunden hast bewundert. Absolutely great shots, well done Maria und herzliche Gruesse. T.

Hi Maria :)

You have a special talent to make people happy. You are going out in the rain with your dog on a rainy day when many people would preferred to sit at home and wonder when the rain will stop. You can see this from the fact there are hardly any people on the road.

You photos are are a real treat for the eyes and I get the impression that the whole of Vienna is one huge garden and the colors are very refreshing and exhilarating.

The rain drops on the leaves, the birds sitting on the branches perhaps wondering where to go and look for food, the fascinating colors of leaves -- all leave me speecless and wonderstruck.

Many thanks for this mighty effort to cheer us up and marvel at the glory of nature. There is so much to see and embellish. You really laid out a lavish buffet of colors, joy, glory, happiness,beauty and wonder which otherwise we would have never had the chance to see for ourselves.

Have a bright and beautiful day :)

Maria, your photos are all so gorgeous! I truly enjoyed walking the dog with you! :-) Many people would leave the camera at home on such a rainy day, but look what great shots they would miss! I really loved the pale pink and green vine with the berries, and the ginkgo leaves, and well, the patterns of all the leaves....and the rainy atmosphere with the wonderful bright umbrellas....it is all just beautiful. Great post!
