More pretty leaves

More amazing tree photos...

My camera withheld the downpour for this photo. I think this is a japanese maple... how pretty!



The leaves drowning in the puddle next to the walk were particularly neat. Our area has been getting so much rain, and there are flood warnings everywhere. It's sort of neat that in spite of all that, the gorgeous fall leaves pop against the evergreen background.



And, even better:



But, so sad, after lasting through all of the rain, a little bit of wind blew so many of the leaves to the ground...



By the next morning, they were all down... so sad to lose that splash of vibrant color amidst all of the grey.
