Weekend Reflections

Monday this week (19th October) did not only offer blue sky and amazing autumn colours in the trees, but also perfect river reflections... :) 

The photo at the top shows a view across the river to the city park (in Borås, Sweden). The second one shows an old industrial complex along the same river. (Those who have been following this blog will no doubt recognise it from many previous photos - but on a day like this, I can never resist just taking one more...) Not sure what kinds of businesses reside there now, but originally they were no doubt to do with the textile industry. 

Skywatch Friday

 

It's been raining here since Tuesday, and that seems likely to continue over the weekend - but I saved this photo from Monday for Skywatch Friday... :)

The perspective is a bit unusual as I was walking on a street (sidewalk) down below where these trees grew. 

Leftovers

 

A few "zoom" photos from a sunny day earlier in October, taken with my compact camera.

After a sunny weekend and start to this week, we're now (Tuesday) back to grey and rainy weather again - and today I haven't been out at all. Today that actually suited me just fine, though, as I had the laundry room booked anyway, and three loads to wash...  

Sunny Sunday

     

This morning started out foggy - but later it turned into a amazingly crisp, clear and sunny autumn day. I went for another walk down to the riverside, and back home via the cemetery. I live only a short walk from both - but today I walked slowly on purpose, just for the pleasure of staying out for a while (an hour or so).

Linking to Weekend/Street Reflections #299

The weather has been shifting a lot this week. Today we had a nice sunny afternoon again, and I snapped this photo from a bridge over the river, in connection with a walk to my nearest super/mega-market. 

While I buy most of my groceries online with home delivery these days (from the same mega market), I occasionally like to visit in person to keep up to date with changes, or to check on things of the kind one really wants to see IRL before buying. 

I found that besides Halloween decorations, they already had a lot of Christmas decorations on display...

 

Most of that feels way too early for me to think about yet, as I don't want any Christmas decorations up before Advent/ December. But online I had seen some tall green LED candles that I might like for November... And I did end up buying a pair of those. (Not using those just yet either, but they may show up in some future post.) Plus a couple of other small items where size/colour matters to me.
