Autumn is progressing. Nights have been cold enough so that there are very few mosquitoes any more in the forests. Soon we might get even frost. And then ... autumn colors.

This time of the year is a bit of a dilemma. On the other hand, you enjoy the beauty. But you also know that soon the leaves will fall of, turn brown and black, and then it will be dark ... for a long time.
