Leaves and Such

Even in October, we see that an early afternoon walk results in pretty long shadows from the leaves on the ground.

The leaves on the trees really show off their colors wehn sunshine is added.

The subtle variations of the colors and work of the insects gives this leaf a little character.

the oversaturated pinks and reds contrasting with the yellow veins here give this leaf a bit of a watercolor feel.

Looking closely at the patterns in the leaf below reminds me of the patterns of houses in a dense subdivision of a large city. Check out the street patterns on Google Maps sometime and you'll see a strong resemblance.
