I liked the way the setting sun was gracing this fallen leaf and it reminded me that soon we'll be raking, then looking at snow and these will then be forgotten. Thank goodness we have a lot of color to look forward to yet!!

EDIT: Best seen full size.

This is a Good comPOST. Like the colors and I too am not looking forward to snow up to my...............knees. The lucky leaves end up in squirrel nests. Just a theory.

Wow, what a great macro. I feel like I'm there. Don't remind winter is coming, though! I don't want to lose the color in the world.

Seasons come and seasons go, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. To me you've depicted one of the autumn advantages as the colours are beatiful. Beautiful image PJ. Regards, Cornelius

It must be resting from all that hard work this year; gathering up nitrogen, converting sun energy, feeding, it's a big responsibility being a leaf. And thank you, 'Lil PJ, for sharing this capture. Great!
