Kaiser Wilhelm Monument in Porta Westfalica.
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.
A small bunch of Snowdrops top off a crown of golden Crocus. A combination of 1/2+1/4 Black Diffusion filters on the camera lens were used to achieve the soft effect in this image.
Burst of sunshine after a very wet and windy day. These trees lit up on the edge of a field. South Ayrshire, Scotland.
This is a place where time stands still in autumn and you take this time to reflect on life.... Filled with new thoughts, you can walk gratefully back down into the valley.

Dies ist ein Ort, wo im Herbst die Zeit still steht und man sich diese Zeit nimmt, um über das Leben nachzudenken... erfüllt mit neuen Gedanken kann man dankbar wieder ins Tal hinunter wandern.

Hildesheim/Lowersaxony GER
St. Godehard is a Romanesque church in Hildesheim, Germany, formerly the church of a Benedictine abbey. It remained almost unaltered through the centuries and was not damaged much in World War II. In 1963, it was awarded the title of a Basilica minor by Pope Paul VI. It is a church of the Catholic parish Heilig Kreuz. The basilica has served as the "cathedral" of the bishop of Hildesheim from 1945 to 1960, when the Hildesheim Cathedral was destroyed and rebuilt, and from 2010, when restoration of the cathedral began. The Hezilo chandelier was installed in St. Godehard during the restoration time. (Wikipedia)

Goldener Oktober
Die Sonne streichelt sanft das Land,
die Blätter fallen leise.
Der Herbst färbt wieder bunt die Welt,
in altbekannter Weise.
Die Bäume leuchten golden-gelb,
im hellen Sonnenlichte.
Der Wind, der mit den Blättern spielt,
erzählt seine Geschichte.
Der Wald zeigt sich im bunten Kleid,
ein Feuerwerk aus Farben.
Kastanien schimmern rot und braun,
den schönsten Glanz sie haben.
Die Tiere sammeln fleißig schon,
für Winters kalte Zeiten.
Nun müssen wieder Mensch und Tier,
sich langsam vorbereiten.
Geerntet wird das letzte Obst,
der Wein wird nun gelesen.
Gefeiert wird der Erntedank,
das ist der Herbst gewesen.

This is one songbird that does not sit still very long!
This Golden-crowned Kinglet was moving from one branch to the next, upside down and then right-side up, then on to the next tree. Seen in Lasalle Park, Burlington, Ontario.

This northern pintail duck flying on a golden pond reflecting the tree colours, I took it yesterday the only sunny day in next on week.這隻針尾鴨正飛躍一個金色的池塘，這是昨天拍的，也是這些天來唯一的晴天

The sun setting on flowers and capturing them with its diffused light always lightens my mood. Happy Monday!
