The Day of Leaves


It was a balmy day, with fog, some wind and a light rain that came and went. It was the day when the last of the leaves fall from the trees. We have a Hickory tree and a Japanese maple on the front lawn and they are the last to loose their brilliant yellow leaves. When I first went out this morning the driveway was covered with a thick carpet of leaves. So I grabbed my camera and spent half an hour looking for photographs. I think this is the strongest image, because it shows the delicate details in this Japanese Maple leaf.
