Stormy November

Dark and stormy evenings - this is another onw from the evening Rebekka and I went for a drive. We were equally fascinated by the strength of the wind, the big waves and all that water covering the roads.

In the Middle of a Storm

Same place, but not the exact same view, as I would have been in water up to my waist. Rebekka and I enjoyed our hot chocolate sitting in the car and looking at the waves. You can see the sticks almost right in the middle of the shot, I stood there when I took the shot right below here only 3 days ago.

Before the Storm

I managed to take a few shots yesterday and it turned out that my timing was good; the first Autumn storm came last night so a lot of the leaves are now on the ground, or in the water in this case. The shot above would hardly be possible today but the one below would of course. This little lake is in Slagslunde Skov, not far from Copenhagen but yet it is out in the country. Actually not far from where Janke lived when she was in her early teens. Beautiful surroundings and I would have taken many more if we had been there a little earlier, but the sun set while I took these so we just headed home.

Autumn

The fact that we still have 15°C almost every day and it is late October is probably due to global warming. I am hopeful and sure we will find ways to turn things around. This planet is so precious, we can't move house, pick another planet. Not yet anyway.
You can help out by not taking the car at all times, there are busses, trains, trams, bicycles, wheelchairs and your own two feet.
The shot is from this afternoon in Fælledparken.
