Heute abend regnet hier - ist nix mit Supermond. Schön, dass ich meinen Supermond gestern schon fotografiert habe - am Haffkruger Strand - allerdings ohne Stativ :-(

Windmühle Nordhemmern, Ostwestfalen, Germany.
Similar to June this month showed changing weather conditions with mainly warm temperatures but humid air and thunderstorms with occasional rain. This weekend was very fine and even hot so we used the time to visit a couple of windmills in the Minden area.

Nachdenkliches aus dem Gedichtzyklus "Die 13 Monate"
von Erich Kästner.
Ich liebe diesen kleinen Gedichteband,in dem Kästner die Schönheit, aber auch die melancholischen Seiten der jeweiligen Jahreszeit beschreibt.
Eines seiner romantischsten und idyllischsten Werke.
Ich wünsche Euch einen friedvollen 2. Advent.

Der Dezember
Das Jahr ward alt. Hat dünnes Haar.
Ist gar nicht sehr gesund.
Kennt seinen letzten Tag, das Jahr.
Kennt gar die letzte Stund.
Ist viel geschehn. Ward viel versäumt.
Ruht beides unterm Schnee.
Weiß liegt die Welt, wie hingeträumt.
Und Wehmut tut halt weh.
Noch wächst der Mond. Noch schmilzt er hin.
Nichts bleibt. Und nichts vergeht.
Ist alles Wahn. Hat alles Sinn.
Nützt nichts, dass man's versteht.
Und wieder stapft der Nikolaus
durch jeden Kindertraum.
Und wieder blüht in jedem Haus
der goldengrüne Baum.
Warst auch ein Kind. Hast selbst gefühlt,
wie hold Christbäume blühn.
Hast nun den Weihnachtsmann gespielt
und glaubst nicht mehr an ihn.
Bald trifft das Jahr der zwölfte Schlag.
Dann dröhnt das Erz und spricht:
"Das Jahr kennt seinen letzten Tag,
und du kennst deinen nicht."
(Erich Kästner)
La llegada a Aveiro fue fantástica, no se explicar el porqué, pero tenía la sensación de que me iba a sorprender gratamente el lugar. Los primeros días fueron días muy nublado en los cuáles la ría nos mostró una belleza más apagada, algo lúgubre podría decir, pero el tercer día fue diferente, a pesar de levantarse muy nublado, corría un fuerte viento y poco a poco el cielo se fue abriendo mostrando todo el esplendor del lugar y haciéndome sentir una maravillosa sensación. La ría comenzó a teñirse de las diferentes tonalidades de azul, los reflejos del cielo comenzaban a verse por momentos más nítido, no se si esto lo veía yo de la emoción xD y el sol comenzó a salir por el horizonte, vamos que mejor no lo podría yo imaginar. El momento fue fantástico, sentía totalmente realizado como si no pudiera haber mejor lugar en el mundo en el que estar, salvo observando esta maravilla y ya de paso hacer alguna que otra fotillo. Un momento realmente irrepetible, inolvidable y lleno de unas sensaciones embriagadoras que llenaban por completo mi espíritu. Uno de esos momentos que según mi opinión son por los cuáles merece la pena estar aquí, INCREÍBLEE !!
Muchas gracias a tod@s, es un verdadero placer todos vuestros comentarios y apoyo !!
Thanks a lot for all! :D

I've passed this rickety barn many times and have always marveled that the last big storm didn't blow it down. Today, I figured I'd better get a shot of it because I'm sure next time I drive by it will be a silo surrounded by a stack of kindling.
:-)
October 2020 edited to add: I drove by here a few weeks ago and a windstorm during the summer seems to have created the predicted pile of kindling surrounding the still-standing silo.
With all the development going on around here the farm buildings are fast disappearing--whether the wrecking ball comes from nature .... or human nature.

Great late Summer here in East-Westphalia. Fine sunset at the Hücker Moor near Spenge, Ostwestfalen, Germany.
The Hücker Moor is a nice little lake in the Herford area (Northwest Germany). Peat was cut here more than a century ago and created this lovely landscape. Today the place is a great place for wildlife and worth a trip for the local population in all seasons.
We finished holidays today and returned after great two weeks in Blavand. Simply perfect days we enjoyed very much.
little young moon is raising over the stony majesty of the big rock in the middle of Horseshoe Bend while the night is coming and a fabulous blue hour is kissing my lens. Impossible to resist to the mixed sensations of the nature majesty and tranquillity of the blue hour.

Next on the river "Left river Regnitz", you reach the "Upper Mill Bridge", the heart of the old town of Bamberg. There wait another half-timbered houses in all possible variations on the visitors.

October waved goodby with sunshine and warm tempereratures and we used the perfect weather for an extended hiking tour on the Wittedindsweg, a crest trail on the Wiehengebirge from Porta Westfalica in the East to the Osnabrück area in the West. Before the sun went down we visited the most interesting spots of the Eastern part of the trail.

Was not satisfied with the color version also that bending poppy bud is distracting and it would have been a cleaner composition without it. So I was deleting the image when I thought "let me try to do some more edit through aviary". So I opted for de-saturation but tones where to much cold/grey/metallic so I added some warmth then I added some sharpness and blemish the image to have the poppy to pop out more. All this to try to have the bud poppy to not distract to much and let the eye to concentrate on the main poppy. It's a try, a test and I'm not sure I managed to get the desired result. I like the detail/focus of petals and the tones though. What do you think? Fell free to come with your opinion.

What I liked the most of my recent trip to Sicily? The light, it was so complex, rich and so peculiar that the real challenge was to capture it all.
This is a very large and composite image made of 10 photos, from the Mount Erice, 700mt over the sea level. From here it is possible to see the whole coast till San Vito Lo Capo and the Mount Cofano. If zoomed it is possible to distinguish each single house, home, road, with insane detail. Print it on a large surface and you will get a eagle eye view of the whole plain.
