I've fallen
I know I'm not a skilled person and that I tend to fall often or to brake things, unintentionally. It just happens to me. Like yesterday. I was a beautiful sunny day and I wanted to go for a walk in the park. One of my hidden agenda was to also check the state of the park alleys for my future (I hope sooner) jogging weekends. To my disappointment the alleys were covered in snow and ice. I should have figure it out that just the main streets were a priority for the city hall not the parks. People enjoying first rays of sun while walking in the park can wait a little longer, can't they? After a while tired of stumbling through the snow that bordered the lake we decided to go back and take the other route, the most circulated one in the park (to be translated as the most crowded) hopping that the snow has melted there. We were a bit tired by the effort and spotted a bench. As we moved in its direction we had to descend some stairs, also covered in ice and water. I don't remember how exactly but one moment I was standing and the next one I was sown in my knees. I have an ugly bruise and an annoying pain in my right foot but I kept saying I'll survive and try not to think about it (until I somewhat sit on that spot and I remember how painful it is). So my running must wait a little longer, maybe more that 2 weeks from now on. Bummer!

This fall ...
... on big screens. He he! Not exactly. But it sounded like one of those movie trailers in the first place. :)
OK, it's time to talk a little bit about this fall otherwise it will be winter soon and this post will be ... outdated. Now, I sound like that lady from the FLN. Never mind, says I, scratching my head, with a shy smile in the corner of my mouth. Better picture that instead of the slightly blind me that writes this article now (I'm a little bat for a few ours now, but I'll be back to normal until next morning).
This week I had made up my mind and took my camera with me. OK, there are no more leaves left on the trees and on the ground as well but now I had the time and courage to puff the dust out of my camera. As you'll see from the following pictures I did some experiments with the manual mode (I hate the automatic cause it doesn't reveal the true colors of things). Now seeing those pictures again I strongly believe that I need a new camera. Maybe Santa will do a little miracle!!! :(
I had this idea of pointing my camera firstly to my surroundings. So I took it step by step from morning till evening.
First thing that I see after the street corner.
It's freezing outside at 7.30 in the novemberish morning.

A little bit further the sun is trying to rise. It should try harder. It's still cooold.

Another corner, another street. Actually that's a street that looks great in spring when the trees are in bloom. Looks like the signs are pointing for me to go back home.
Just a look back before ...

taking a break and notice the puffy black observer
... and moving forward.

Before entering the subway, a quick look at the sun reflecting on that block of flats' windows.
Commuters. I wonder what they're thinking in their hurry to get to work.

Almost there. On the other side of the city sun is already up.

Last signs of this fall.

Each morning I'm looking at those windows on the right side of the road and I imagine people drinking their coffee in the kitchen and enjoying their moment of peace.
Evening already. That street has an interesting name: Night entry. And the mansion seems to guard the entry.
On the Night entry light finds her way through.
Some street aspects.

Back to my streets. Ya, I know is a foggy night.
The autumn leaves lie on the asphalt.

My beloved linden tree. That's the proud witness of my late-night-coming-back, being winter or summer. I just love that tree. Unfortunately I haven't got the chance to take a picture of it before loosing his crown.
The closer I get, the foggier it turns.

One more step.

And back to good.
Those are just some of the pictures I took this week. There are more things to tell and more pictures to show. It's running late now. I really have to rest my eyes.
