Leaves, #2

After taking the first group of pictures, I noticed how different the leaves looked when the sun was on them. Since the sky was overcast when I took the first pictures, I decided I needed more pictures and went back when the sun was out to get some more. I love the dramatic lighting on these.

Autumn is here

Well, life has definitely happened since my last post, and my goal of having a new picture up every week has most definitely not been met. But I am finally at least trying to get back at it!

This interesting white leaves have been attracting my attention for a few weeks now. They are gold on one side and solid white on the other.....they look like they have been spray painted, but that is how they were on the tree. I don't know much about trees, and so I don't know what kind of tree this comes from, but I just had to get some pictures of them. I was walking by them on my way into work every day and finally on my day off I showed up with my camera to get some pictures. I am most fascinated with the way the veins and textures show up so well against the white.
