The end of summer

It's obvious: the end of summer is certainly here. Now. The wind is blowing in our faces, clouds cover the sky and make it look like sheep to be shorn.

Though, today was a wonderful day. The sky was mostly clear, and the sun was shining the whole day. I thought it was time for a walk, and my dog was very with me. During the walk, I noted that autumn is very, very near. Take a look yourself.

A pond with fountain in our neighborhood. Some leaves of the Small-leaved Linden are already yellow.


The sun was shining on these beautiful trees. The berries are so bright red and orange, it looks like they're painted.


A stunning blue sky.


The Rowan and its fruit.


Elderberries. If you want to make syrup or jam with elderberries, this is the time to pick them.


A young pollard willow against a bright blue sky.


Flowering clover! The last meadow flowers of the year.


The park in the polder is a lovely place to walk. My dog loves this place, because she can run free and there are always other dogs to play with.



Outside walking gives me so much energy and inspiration. Every time when I go outside, I am astonished by the beauty and the power of nature. I hope you can feel with me.
