Description
There are two different dates when Autumn could be said to begin. Autumn as defined by the Earth's orbit around the sun, begins on the Autumn equinox which falls on 22 or 23 September.
However, for the purposes of recording climate data, it is important to have set dates that can be compared, so the meteorological Autumn always begins on 1 September.
A study in the Journal of Aging Research found that babies born during the Autumn months are more likely to live to 100 than those born during the rest of the year.
Their study found that 30% of US centenarians born during 1880-1895 were born in the Autumn months.
Generally speaking the Autumn equinox always falls on either 22 or 23 September, but not quite always.
Because the Gregorian calendar is not quite in perfect symmetry with the Earth's orbit, the Autumn equinox will very occasionally fall on September 24. This last happened in 1931 and will next happen in 2303.

As they say in realestate, location is everything. And in photography, timing is also everything. You have both here, well done.
