One morning you'll wake up and find that summer colors have disappeared. Deep green leaves in trees turn yellow and red. Nature creates a carneval of colors that will flourish a short moment, a few weeks. In Helsinki in Finland that happened today. The heat of the summer is gone, the nights are cooler and longer.  The sun appears only occasionally. Fall colors have arrived. Lets's enjoy the colors a moment. Photos: Sirpa Pääkkönen

Nature in Finland. Photos: Sirpa Pääkkönen Now there are last weeks when in Finland leafy trees are still green. Very soon the autumn changes the leaves red and yellow and they will drop to the ground. Usually the autum colors appear to Lapland at the second week of September and to the southern Finland a little bit later. During the fall colors the nature looks amazing. Anyway in Helsinki it is still warm an green. This year summer started already in May and is still going on at least for a while. We had quite much rains and a few very windy storms here, but the nature loves water. Here you have some pictures that tell we still have green here.
