What do the Maltese Islands look like at the change of seasons?
Clouds are brewing, announcing the arrival of the autumn rains.
This fishing boat and some cats near the boat houses at Ghar Lapsi reminds of typical Maltese rural scenery.
Or why not some underwater scenery in the sea still warm to enjoy?
Some scenes make you wonder which century you're actually in.
There's the charm, where old traditions survive.
Cosmopolitan influences may come and life changes with the times, but some things will never change.
Some of it is raw beauty.
Some of the things to admire are finely engineered.
From the rustic rubble walls of the old Citadel in Gozo...
...to the fine art and sculpture of the city of Valletta ...
...some things remain timeless, no matter the year or the season.
Keep enjoying sights of the fishing nets and boats waiting for the skies to clear...
... because this is Malta, where the old and new have grown fond of each other.
Just as autumn brings summer and winter together.
