Autumn colours at work.

Going out from the office on Friday I was welcomed by the best kind of Polish autumn: 23 degrees, sun and a firework of red, yellow and orange.

Lovely concrete

Photo from Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris. Over the last 50 years concrete seems to be a material that the French embraced wholeheartedly. And steel. Some more impressions from a recent trip to France can be found here.

Signs of spring

With the vernal equinox spring came to Poland. We've had a couple of days with 18 °C now, and although it will be a little colder now, one can really feel spring in the air. The signs of spring are everywhere. Above, the most typical messenger of the Polish spring - the storks are back. We spent the weekend in the country side so I had some opportunity to take some springy photos.

The son is looking for frogs in the grass.

There are plenty of frogs now.

The farmers have busy times. The son if fascinated by all the tractors driving about. The neighbour let Max sit in his old Ursus. Although this is the newest of his three tractors.

A bonus stork picture. I'm a bit annoyed that I left my longer lens at home. This is cropped almost at 100% taken at 105mm with the EF 24-105 L-lens.

Jupiter above the crowd

There was a light festival at Wilanów Royal Palace this weekend. Tons of people visited to see the palace illuminated by a fine light show to music. I wonder how many noticed Jupiter watching just above the show?
