The Usual Suspects

I shot this in early December at a local park. I was heading back to the parking area after shooting in the cold for a couple hours and stumbled onto this little scene. I was drawn to this grouping of leaves, the greens still present in some, the half buried in snow aspect and the way they lined up like suspects in a police investigation. Comments welcome.

Great ey for an interesting shot. Like the title.

Yeah, the one on the end definitely looks like Kevin Pollock. Nice find and well executed, Brian.

Nice intimate slice of nature here Brian. I like the color combinations. Did you experiment with any compositions that placed things at more of an angle in the frame?

Joel, as I said in the OP, I was heading back in after a longish session already, and so I didn't have the energy to experiment a lot here. This is the only other angle I tried, and I liked the straight on version better.

Chuck, I thought the one on the right had a 'limp' and was thinking Kevin Spacey.

I agree think the first shot is best but I could not identify any of them.

I like the composition of the second one better, but I like the leaves better in the first posting, Brian. The leaves look like it might be Sumac.

Thanks for the comments! Toni, I appreciate the help with the plant ID. I'll google and see if I can confirm.
