Saturday at Iron and Kerosene ~ Sunday Visiting Friends

The event Rauta ja Petrooli / Iron and Kerosene took place in Riihimäki on Saturday and Sunday. We visited the event on Saturday. It was the most beautiful last day of summer. The event R&P is mainly about tractors but there are also all kind of machines, classic cars, trucks, busses, motorbikes, flea market etc. etc. This time I was a lazy photographer. I took very few pictures.   

On Sunday we visited our friends. It was so nice. The weather was nice but not at all as warm as it was on Saturday. The summer definitely is gone. Look at these adorable beautiful gladiolus my friend has. I think I will buy some next spring.  Thank you dear friends for having us there.

Sunset

So colorful for a minute or two at about 7:45 pm.

No Night Frost Yet

Already one week into the fall. The weather’s still so nice. The days are as in early summer. Warm and sunny. I have been a bit worried about my flowers as the nights have been quite chilly so I checked the weather forecast for the next two weeks and am happy to find out the nigh temperatures still will stay above zero.

Good no frost during the nights yet. I will let the flower pots stay on the terrace for another two weeks or so before taking them in for the winter.

Common Crane ~ Grus Grus

Saw two cranes today. They were several hundred meters away from me. I knew the distances was too far for my camera for me to get any good pictures. A paparazzi lens would have been nice 🙂  The cranes were in no mood for a photo session. After staring at me for a few seconds they flew away.
