Taking back what I said about Berlin's dreadful autumn

Berlin put on a stunning show of colours this weekend. As I was on my errand runs on Saturday I noticed the colours are spectacular on its own even on a depressing overcast + slight drizzling today. So I looked up on a few sites and decided to go to Schloss Charlottenburg to get some autumn colours in. 

I had to make a stop in front of Brandenburger Tor because the scene was too perfect. Plus the bike racks on the side offer an unobstructed view (usually they are behind parked cars) 


The Schloss itself was nice but the portion close to the building was under construction. So the view with both the building and the trees didn't work out...Then I happened to retrace my step from a year ago and found a spot next to the Spree river. There were plenty of empty benches too (I assume it was too cold to sit down) As I started, a red boat also happened to pass by so I quickly sketched it in! Around this time the sky is getting darker and the colours don't pop that much anymore...so I quickly packed up and raced home, just as it was starting to drizzle...again ;A;
