It's probably competing for the best season with spring photography wise
I love spring too as you can photograph buds that have some nice texture, but comparing macro with colors is not the same. I don't think I can choose between the two as both are lovely, but maybe autumn is closer to my heart. I used to see autumn as the end (of everything), but not anymore 😉
I'm always kinda afraid to photo around too much, it's full of thieves in autumn so even people just walking and looking around get pointed and police alerted so imagine if you photo around..
I don't envy you for that. I know criminality is high in your country, especially now wit all the immigrants. Things are a bit different here and I took these photos at a park full of cameras, so no danger there.
