Lucky leaf. To be the chosen one from thousands of others. I am deep into "O Rugged Land of Gold." I don't want to stop reading. It has been a rainy day here, so it was a good day for reading. I have a sore throat and don't feel worth a toot; may be a good day tomorrow to finish the book. Thanks for recommending the book!
An oak for sure. Now I will have to check the species, but I am sure you are right! It's a lovely shot. My unsophisticated eye would probably just see a leaf on the ground, yours leaps to thoughts of contrast, balance and composition. Well done!
I love the contrast of textures. The leaf has beautiful color and detail. A wonderful composition!
ReplyDeleteWow, you are good at tree I.D.! I have not seen any looking like this around here.
ReplyDeleteThis is a perfect example of less is more.

ReplyDeleteSomehow when you zoomed in on the single leaf, our attention was brought to focus on the beauty of the leaf.
ReplyDeleteI like this very much. The gravel makes a perfect bed for the leaf.
