El otoño es la temporada de las cosechas, los festivales, las migraciones y los preparativos para el invierno.
Durante el otoño se desarrollan numerosas festividades. Las más conocidas son Halloween y el Día de Acción de Gracias, muy populares en el ámbito anglosajón. En España y Latinoamérica septentrional, el día más importante es el Día de Todos los Santos, que al igual que Halloween, era en su inicio una festividad de origen pagano vinculada al culto y en países como México el Día de los Fieles Difuntos en respeto de los difuntos, donde se les recuerda con actividades como la quema de veladoras y de oración dedicadas a familiares y amigos que han fallecido.
Todo se inunda de un follaje colorido, como podemos ver en estas espectaculares fotos de la agencia de noticias Reuters.
