About this blog:
We love traveling. We always capture tons of pictures from wherever we've been and we like sharing our traveling experiences with our friends. So, this is how this blog began - as short stories with pictures in an attempt to share where we've been and what we've seen. Even not stories , but just notes. Nothing serious and big. Mostly I'm writing these stories on a rush and sometimes even don't have time to re-read them. So, I apologize in advance for possible typos here and there. There can be some factual errors or inaccuracies and they even might be corrected one day. Don't hesitate to contact me if you find something that needs to be fixed and don't expect these notes to be a perfect novels ;) The stories in this blog are not in chronological order, but I will try to remember to put the date of the trip. So... welcome to this blog and, hopefully, you will find something interesting and have the same feeling we had when we were there. Let's go...
And... by the way... all pictures and texts in this blog are protected by International and USA Copyright laws, so if you'd like to repost or use something on your page - contact me first.
Using anything published here without permission is violation of the law and... it isn't really nice...

The first frost...

Do you know that feeling when you wake up in the morning and look out the window to find everything covered in tiny white crystals? All the flowers and leaves look different and simply beautiful. Well... it's also the perfect time to go out and take your camera with you ;)

 
And if it happens in November... you still have a chance to see some flowers in bloom!


Or some crabapples brightening up the leafless trees ;)


Or birch leaves - vibrant, fearlessly battling the wind and cold on their thin branches...


But the frost covering the leaves is the best! The tiny ice crystals make everything so magical...





Some flowers have dried up, while others are still blooming...



But this oak tree really captivated me. The leaves were so vibrant and seemed unreal. Neither green nor red... but some crazy combination of both!


And frost... frost... frost...





The ginkgo tree had shed all its leaves, and they covered the entire surface beneath the tree. Interestingly, they were the same bright yellow hue as the birch leaves ;)




Well... it was a peaceful morning to wander around the Botanical Garden and look for something small but beautiful. Something that would catch your eye and keep you glued to one place for a long time...
