    Such beautiful colors. I like how you caught the definition of the leaves and the elements .. rock, bark, grass and leaves. Adds a nice touch to a fall photo thumb.gif

    Hi Jack,

    Nicely seen and captured. The colors are fantastic. Those yellow leaves don't look like anything I normally see in the woods around here. Got any idea what kind of tree they come from?

    Take care,

    Tom
    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Red and gold are the Chinese colors for happiness and prosperity. The yellow appear to be Ginko leaves and the red ones Japanese maple (?). Well done shot of a scene that most people would never notice.

    Thanks Mary Kim
    I have several shots of groups of these leaves but this is my favourite because of the various natural elements present.

    Hey rainbow

    Thanks for that information. I knew the Japanese maple cause I have one on my property but had never seen Ginko leaves. Appreciate the nice comment as well.
