A Moment in the Autumn

In the early morning on my way to the work, I drive my car on a curved road. Through the shadows of the high-rise trees, the rising sun shines into my eyes. A cold breeze starts to shake the trees slightly; the colorful lights seem to dance with the trees in reflection of the moving leaves. Some loosing leaves are slowly falling down like snow, of cause, not in white, but in bright yellow. A thought strikes my mind: I should jump out of my car to catch this moment with my camera.

The horn blows. Of cause, some inpatient driver behind me reminds a day dreamer that it is the morning traffic time. I slightly press the gas pedal and keep myself up to the traffic.

Nature often shows her best at your most unprepared moment. You don't have to possess it, just appreciate it.
