Autumn is here (for those of us in the northern hemisphere). This year, the full moon and the autumnal equinox happened on the same day, for the first time in 19 years. Evenings now come sooner and the air cools more quickly, leaves are beginning to change, crops are being harvested, harvest festivals are being held, and animals and nomads are on the move to their winter grounds. Collected here are a handful of recent images of early autumn around the northern half of our world.
秋天已经悄然降临北半球。今年,满月与秋分正好落在同一天,此种巧合为19年来的首次。现在夜幕降临得比以前更早,气温也开始迅速下降,于是树叶开始呈现缤纷的色彩,农作物陆续进入收获季节,丰收的喜庆也你方唱罢我登场,此外,动物和游牧民族正在准备动身前往冬季栖息地。以下呈现给各位的是北半球初秋降临人间的景象。
