Leaves!

[minicoop1985]

For those of us who live where the leaves change, it's that time of year! Those of us who don't, well, leaves can be a pretty good subject, right? Let's see what you got.

Here, I'll start:

Those caught my attention for looking more like chili peppers than leaves.

Leaves are a great subject, especially this time of year. They can even be interesting subjects well after their more colorful period. I'm surprised there hasn't been more posted. The first shot is very nice -- definitely chili peppers! It's interesting to look at a subject in a totally different way. In the second posted pic I like the holes in the leaves. It lends an "imperfect nature" feel that I like.

Here's one I just took last week:



And one that I've always liked although it's not a 'typical' pretty shot:

Snapped a couple of leaves outside when I got home this morning with a 33-year-old 50mm 1.7 lens (on a new K-3). I love this old lens.

Pez, I think I have that lens as well. Asahi, yes? It's fantastic, isn't it?

Here are a couple from my campus:

Here's another one. Again, it's from campus. This is what happens when you take a 4-hour contracts class on Saturday: you get squirrely during the break and are 'forced' to go take a bunch of pictures of leaves

Y'all know this is just too much of a cliche and when you take photos like this you should just enjoy them privately.

I took this one cause the leaves and branches reminded me of music notation.

The ginkgo leaves all fell end of the 2nd week in November in Tower Grove Park. How's that for cliche with the park bench thrown in for a finish.
