Autumn Hues

This post has been in the works for the last three weeks. Unfortunately the weather gods didn't favour me. I waited for the lovely autumn leaves around me to turn a shade more orange so I could capture the leaves at just the right moment. But the downpour we had two weeks ago ruined them completely.

Lesson learned-always always carry your camera so you capture the moment rather than wait for it to get better.

But the photographs aside, I have realised that Autumn is my favourite season in Europe. The air is crisp and nippy and you see the trees in lovely shades of orange, yellow and fuchia. When there's a strong breeze its as if the sky is raining leaves. Once in a while I manage to catch one of the leaves that lazily floats from from the high branches. The glee I feel at that instant is almost child-like.

Despite the rain, lady autumn smiled a little for my Olympus...here are some pictures from the ITC ILO campus and Moncalieri
