Why do I want to sing "O Canada" when I see this ...
The contrast of the smooth but decaying leaf and the rugged but surviving trunk is great. I like combo of stark and stunning colors.
The details seem to be starting to fade around the corners. Would it have been a touch more interesting if the leaf were a bit off-center? Or does the centering of the leaf make it a stronger statement. (I know, you had not intent of making a statement ... LOL)
