Autumn, Autumn, Autumn

Not every day is a lucky day, so you have to look at the bright side. I wasn't able to find nice chestnut scenes, but look at these beauties.

It's the season, it's time for these beauties to bet as colorful as possible and lucky me, I have plenty of places where to admire the art created by nature.

If you look at the colors, you can't even count how many are there. Would give some headache to a painter to put these scenes on canvas.

As I'm always saying, there's always something to photograph, you just have to notice it.

I wish these leaves could last forever, but nights are getting chilly and after the first frost the leaves are going to end up on the ground.

This morning I went to the park in the hope of catching wild chestnuts early, before the rush starts. I truly believe nature is the best artists and undisturbed scenes are priceless but to catch them, you have to beat the others.

I was hoping to find chestnuts on the ground, but still with their pod on them. The pods look great when still green. The spikes are a bit scary but look amazing on the photos.

Unfortunately others beat me to it as the alleys were already cleaned and even if there were pods and chestnuts on the alley, by the time I got there, there was none.

I was able to find some among the leaves, but not green pod though. Pods on the ground were brown, already dry. It's strange as we had a good few windy days and wind usually brings down everything that is already dry and not strong enough to hold. I was expecting for some green pods as well though.

Even though I wasn't able to find what I was looking for, I'm not giving up on the project. Maybe the weekend will be a good occasion to go back or look elsewhere, where cleaners don't do a proper job. Let's see.

To make the mix even more colorful, here's some green and yellow, that very soon will be brown and dry.

Next I'm watching the plane trees, the platanus, which has the habit of losing its bark. It's not the time yet as the bark is still looking good, like it will stay here forever, but in a month I bet I can come back with some very cool photos.

This is why I love nature photography, there's always something, regardless of the time of the year.
