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!

Autumn is on its way!


On my trip this afternoon I saw



Crystal raindrops on spiderwebs


Delicate butterflies in autumn colours


Bizarre flowers of late summer


In a softly rolling landscape


A roadside shrine unter trees


amidst wineyards full of grapes


in red and blue and gold


and sooo delicious!

What a fabulous season!

Autumn impressions



This morning me and my friend Brigitte revisited Lobau, the wetlands of the river Danube.
It was a typical autumn day,
grey sky, pale colours, cool air and the wonderful smell of decaying leaves.




Have a nice weekend ahead!

Today's flowers - Autumn colours


Yesterday we spent a pleasant afternoon in the wineyards near Lake Neusiedl. The golden autumn light painted the last flowers and sunburnt grasses in soft but glowing colours.









In the distance you can see Lake Neusiedl in the misty dusk of the late afternoon sun.


My dear companions:




Dear friends, have a pleasant week ahead!

Today's flowers - Autumn

It's definitely autumn now
at the beginning of October,
and some leaves are already changing colours,
and the last pale roses show their delicate beauty!

Today's flowers - Early autumn colours






A wonderful summer period ended abruptly in cold rain and nearly winterly temperatures at the beginning of September.

After two cold weeks, autumn has come, and the temperatures are warm and pleasant again.
The flowers and trees begin to wear their first autumn colours!


While the virginia creeper is showing the fist red leaves in Vienna's Stadtpark,
the Japanese Maple in Kumpfgasse is still summerly green!
