Autumn in Munich

Autumn is here, in full force:

- the weather is colder, consistently single digits (Celsius) in the evening and only teens during the day
- the leaves are falling in bunches, and people always wear a "real" jacket (even the summer holdouts)
- the Alps are getting snow

Note that Munich lies at 48 degrees north latitude... this is further north than St. John's, Newfoundland (Canada)!
The days are getting quite short, and the afternoon sun is already very low on the horizon.

Despite the increasing darkness, I've had some nice views from my office in Neuperlach (southeast Munich).
This first one uses the Olympus "Dramatic Tone" art filter on the E-PL2:

It's a little dark, but I zoomed way out to show how the mountain peaks are getting significant snow now...

... and zoomed out a little more on the same area (about 16:00 in the afternoon):

Winter is on its way, so we'll have to dust off the skiis soon.

Thanks Mom. I like the one guy standing there, talking on the cell phone - among the nice yellow leaves. Sure do miss the colors of Western New York though. Herr J
