"Where I live we can not see the four seasons, we only have a rainy period which we call winter, and a dry period which we call summer ..."

... I can imagine it appears far different to you. My only experience with something similar to what you describe is living in southern Arizona, in the Sonora Desert. There we had a long, dry, hot (very) summer and a shorter, dry "cool" summer. The natives of that area liked to call it winter, but ... We knew better! Hahaha ...

".. to see these pictures of autumn in full splendor is something, it is something impressive for me, to observe kilometers of road and extensions of land where the foliage seems to be about to be extinguished, as if life ended is impressive."

Yes, in contrast to southern Arizona, the Rocky Mountain region has four distinct seasons. We enjoy all of them, for various reasons. The changing of fall colors is a very fine experience, before the onset of winter. When the leaves are all gone and cold and snow take their place.

But ...

That season has a stark beauty of its own, in the crystalline white powder on the branches of trees, glistening in the bright sun, with birds still singing in the background. Winter, in turn, gives way to the remarkable renewal of life, with the return of leaves and flowers, and our favorite season - Spring. Where we can experience once again another growing season and our simple life of gardening ...
