Colorful May

After an unusual long winter, comes – of course – an unusual warm month. May hasn’t been that warm, in Denmark, for more than 100 years. Unusual is the new usual.

The tulip season has started, and so has the time for fun photo sessions, when the aging flowers are ready to leave the vase.

The low light fight

The low light fight has begun.

It definitely is autumn, low tempetature, falling leaves and decreasing daylight, all signs that can´t be misunderstood. On the other hand, September was almost warmer than summer, and the warmest September Denmark have ever had. (The average of the highest daytime temperatures have never been higher).Buttom line is, that the weather is unpredictable and cant be trusted anymore as  calender.
Luckily there is another reliable sign which can be used instead – perhaps a bit too eager but never mind -, that is the Christmas candy sale. I saw the first one today, and I know for sure now, that there is a long time to Christmas, and there will be many low light days to fight, before the turning point at December 22. (Sun rise 8:38am  sunset 3:39pm)
Let the fight begin.

Cold days are back. So are the possibilities to find interesting subjects.

Autumn, Fall, Efterår…

…different names of this season, but the same preparation for winter’s cold. Colorful leaves all over.
