Autumn is on its way

No Switzerland folks, but the area near were I was born just over the Dutch-German border near my city of birth Enschede.

Went home this weekend to meet my brothers and sisters and to get some clean underwear. Well before that I had a great meeting with my family in Giethoorn (pictures later) and went sunday together with my brother Arie for a long nice walk at the Haarmülle in Germany, just over the border.

Well this is the typical landscape of this area, meadows bordered by trees. In the Netherlands you will find this in Twente too.

Anyway it's clear to see autumn is on its way!

PP, just adjusted contrast and brightness slightly. Small crop, resized and sharpened.

Hoi Hans,
Een paar bomen die al wat gaan verkleuren, een blauwe hemel met wat witte wolkjes, een groen weitje..........
Jij zet dit alles in een prima vlakverdeling en met prachtige kleuren op de "gevoelige plaat" en ziedaar: een DIJK van een foto!
Prachtig hoor!

Groet uit Schouwen,
Adri

Hi Hans
I think I'm ready for the change of the season. Turning colors well captured and composed against the blue of the sky. Like your choice of low POV.

Hi Hans,
A nicely composed scenic landscape scene. This is a fun time of the year as the leaves start the process of changing colors. I hate what follows this beautiful time, the cold. I love the colors in your picture. The sky looks wondeful and the trees really stand out. Nice work.
Regards,
Kevin

Hello, Hans,
what a great shot! The colors are just delicious, so clear and well saturated. I like the lineup of the trees going into the shot and the sky is just beautiful. I wish autumn were that close to arriving here. Enjoy it!! Many thanks nad kindest wishes,
Shelly

Hi Hans,
this is a fantastic landscap photo. the color and the composition of the picture was successfull. congratulation to this photo,
Georg

I like this frame. Very smart point of view and carefully chosen composition. There are hundreds of ways of photographing places like this which make the picture look boring, but you definitely got the most of it in my oppinion. Is there not too much contrast in it?

Greetings

Beautiful colours and composition but a depressing title to think that summer is over....
Thanks for sharing
Mark

HI Hans,

Very lovely colors of fall that are appearing. The leaves against the beautiful sky are really nice. Looks like you and your brother had plenty of acres to walk.

Can't wait to see the photos of Giethoorn too.

thanks for sharing, Lisa

Hi Hans,
Beautiful landscape nicely composed and presented as usual with great colors and sharp picture, Excellent POV. and details. beautiful sky and light,
very well done.

Hi Hans,
Nice shot, the autumn colours are coming and so is Christmas LOL, I like the composition here, this looks a great place for a picnic, a shame that summer departs but nice to see a blue sky.
Well done my friend

Hurrah - spring is on its way
Yes, I see the colours changing Hans, and I suppose it is getting cooler too. We're expect 18C today.
I love the changing colours, and especially the bright sky.

Hi Hans, A well balanced scene with an excellent blue sky. The 2/3 rule works particularly well here. Germany certainly has some wonderful scenery such as this. TFS. Murray.

Je speelt echt weer studentje - naar huis voor schoon ondergoed, het moet toch niet gekker worden.

But you were lucky to have this weather and take a nice walk - indeed it's clear to see autumn is on its way.
Attractive composition underneath that birght clear sky.

Hi Hans
Fall does bring out the colours that we know will be the last for what seems to be a long time to come again.
Altough not too brightly colored yet, you managed to get enough to make the shot look great against the clouded sky.

Mooie compositie, mooi vastgelegd!

Hi Hans,
Great composition and color rendition here, a stunning autumn shot. I especially like how you handled and positioned the sky and clouds to add to and enhance the colors in the trees, really a treat for the eyes.

It's nice to be able to walk in scenery like this on sunny days, Hans, and this shot really depicts the mood of such occasions. Beautiful colours and excellent contrast and saturation. Compo is perfect, but still I have one nit-pick: the bright pole (or tree stem) that can be seen in the back between the front trees. Burn it (with the burn brush, not literally) or clone it out, I'd say...
Still: it's getting clearer every day that autumn will move in fast.
