On The Ground
This morning we had our coldest temps of the fall so far, 23 at 7am. What I found interesting and the reason I took this photo this morning was, this is just outside my back door. Last night when I got home around 11pm these leaves were still in the tree. Just a few had fallen the last few weeks nothing major. In less then 12 hours 90% of the leaves from this tree are now on the ground. Just found that interesting and of course had to take a picture of it.

The temp's certainly did drop overnight around here didn't they Brad. That's quite a concentration of leaves. I like the splashes of cyan on the leaves and the few leaves that provide contrast to the primarily green subjects. Thanks for sharing!

The more I look at this, the more I like it. Almost all the leaves are intact, without any signs of critters having eaten them. And the saturated colors are really nice. Great shot Brad.
