Seasonal contrasts

It's autumn outside already, it's November. However, the nature here looks quite the same as 3 months ago. If you go to the mountains about 2km hight, during September you may see such picture:

The interesting thing is that if you go to the same place in a month, you get next picture:

As for me, a girl from quite rainy and cold country Lithuania, this kind of picture is normal at the end of October. The difference is that you go up to the mountains about 2km higher then you live and when you come back, you can just go the Nice, Promenade des Anglais, and have your time like this:

Another contrast is that even if it's so green around like in the summer time, it's enough to go 15km from the cost about 800m higher to change the picture from summer one...
