Autumn Postcards…A stroll in the forest

Autumn begins slowly but surely... I do not know why, but I always think of autumn as the season of love. To me, this is the most beautiful season. The temperature remains clement in this part of Europe; the landscape’s shades of warm colours seem almost unreal. Plus, you can put on your boots... This also counts for me as I love to wear boots, as well as eating hot chestnuts, lying on the couch on Sunday to read, cocooning, going to the movies, making plum tarts... But I also love improvised programmes, like the ones that Sweetheart chooses so well.

What about you? What does autumn inspire in you? Have you noted some fun upcoming activities on the calendar? I’m curious to hear all about it.

 I will be posting Autumn Postcards frequently here. Here is the first one…

Adjacent to the Parc des Evaux stands a big forest which I explore weekly. About a week ago, I took these snaps during my walk. I’m so fond of this forest; it is not the most beautiful, but it is really special to me... The trees are lovely and tall too, the paths are nice and shady and we are spoiled with a gorgeous view over the river Rhône.

    Those are some beautiful pictures.


    I also enjoy Autumn as I enjoy all seasons. I also spend a lot of time in the wood. There is something special about Autumn scenes.

    Autumn gives us some of the best days of the year. We took a family stroll around the neighborhood yesterday and it was perfectly bright, cool yet not too cold yet. Foliage is everywhere and it's so amazing to see the colors in nature...

    I totally agree, autumn is sure the most beautiful season! I loved the pics you took, this place is gorgeous! I would love to walk around and get lost around there. ♥
    I can`t wait to go on more autumn walks here, and capture all these beautiful colours.

      Coming from a brilliant photographer like you, I feel flattered. That said, I had a lot of fun to photograph a place so dear to me. Have a lovely day Tais :)

    Love the colors in your photos! Really pretty. Autumn can be beautiful but the season here is too short this far north. Autumn unfortunately means winter is coming soon and it'll be long. But I know it is a lot better in other places.

      Yes Susan, the colours are fantastic. I have always been impressed with the winters in Canada - it is magical - everything is covered in white. Have a lovely day :)

    I love your interpretation of the season and how you associate it with love, perhaps it's the romance in nature you're seeing? The changing colour of the leaves and general 'stillness' truly is very special :) Speaking of special, your captures shared in this post are beautiful!

      Hello Gaby! Maybe I associate the fall with the season of love because I fell in love during this period... And I'm a huge fan of nature... So, maybe this is the answer. Thank you so much for your kind words :)
