It's been ages since I posted random shots or black and white for example, which I've been planning to do and never did. I've been taking photos as I always do, so today I'm going to post neither art, nor charts, but simple photos. Let's see if you like these.
Before I start, I need to let you know, we don't really celebrate Halloween in my country. Maybe kids at school have a Halloween party and some adults too, but you won't see houses decorated or huge street parties or kids going door to door. You can buy decorations, but thank God, the crazy is not here yet. I hope it stays this way.
I took this photo the last day of October, when I went to buy some flowers for the next day as we have All Saints' Day on the 1st of November. This, whatever you want to call it, was placed in front of a coffee shop and I thought I'd show it to you. Even though, as I said, we don't celebrate Halloween, I liked it, it looked cool. I don't know what he was doing with the jar, if you know, let me know.
During the year, in this place, there's a working clock surrounded by flower and it is called the flower clock. Around All Saints' Day, flowers taking over for awhile, after which a very tall Christmas tree is placed here, decorated with all kinds of Christmas decorations and lights, till mid January.
This is how the city center looked like all week, before All Saints' Day.
The city is making available this space for vendors whenever there's an event, like All Saints' Day, Christmas, 8th of March or summer festivals, but that day it was full of flowers.
For me it's always a pleasure to walk through the flower market and see all these gorgeous flowers.
Look at this view, how can you not love it?
Besides buying flowers, I was also hunting for some lovely flower photos and I'm happy to show you this beauty.
All Saints' Day, also known as All Hallows' Day, the Feast of All Saints, the Feast of All Hallows, the Solemnity of All Saints, and Hallowmas, is a Christian holy day celebrated in honour of all the saints of the Church, whether they are known or unknown. In Western Christianity, it is celebrated on November 1st. source
On this day, most of us go to the cemetery, visit our loved ones that unfortunately are no longer with us. We bring these wonderful flowers and light candles as well.
Back when I was a kid, I remember we used to go in the evening as lighting candles in the dark was the plan, but times change and these days we go when we can and when the weather permits.
This year the 1st fall on Saturday and it was a stunning day. It was sunny and hot as a summer day, the temperature was over 20C.
The city made public transport available for everyone at weekday schedule, to reduce traffic jams, which was a real gift.
I hope you like these flowers. It's the highlight of autumn, among the golden leaves of course.
