Autumn is almost over

 Last Sunday we made a trip through the wineyards south of Vienna,
from Pfaffstätten to Mödling. In the morning the sun was still hidden in the fog, but the wineleaves showed their bright colours even so.


Some days ago, the "Heurigen" were still open and people enjoyed the last sunny days here among the wineyards.


 
The landscape was painted green, yellow and red, and in the distance, the hills of the Vienna Woods showed their white cliffs.


What a beautiful autumn day!


 We left Schloss Gumpoldskirchen behind and ascended the hills of the Vienna Woods.
When we walked along the small paths through the pine woods, the sun came out. Slowly we went down the hills to Mödling.


Only a few days later we had the first snowfall - winter is approaching!

The "print" on the leaves in your first pic is so painterly. Beautiful vineyard!! Here in California, Fall has only just begun!

The second and fifth photos take your breath away at first glance. WOW Most of our leaves have fallen here only the lower canape remains but it too is losing leaves fast. I do love Autumn as it is God's shout of color before the winter's whispering snow and cold. Peace.
