On a desolate splendor of this autumn night
We listen to the serene call of the gleaming moonlight
Deciduous trees stand tall to acclaim its magnificence
Conducting the melodious whispers of the cold and gentle wind
As each golden neon foliage shimmers and pirouettes on view
You hold me tight as I hold you, too
For this autumn night will rise the citadel of love…just me and you
– Galeo DS
Love is sweet and it gets even sweeter when set against the wild, untamed beauty of Siberia in autumn. Presenting “Autumn in Siberia” photo essay. Seen through my awestruck eyes, the photos are guaranteed to make you fall in love as well..with the golden maturity of autumn, Siberia and the wonderful carefree feeling which only vast, empty spaces in nature can bring. So come fall in love. It is the season of dancing leaves, scattered gold, apple picking and the first brush of snow.
