In this set of photos I'm sharing single leaf images. Explore the possibilities of how unique each and every single leaf is designed by nature.

My cover photo was a little bit staged, and went through some slight post editing to help make the grass less dull gray.

For all the photos below, I used zero edits to the colors. All I did was crop a few of them to make it fit better in this post.

This is exactly how my camera sees the colors. Most of the photos show the leaf exactly where ever it fell. Only a few I had to move, to ensure that no other leaf was in the same frame.

Most of these leaves are clearly from the same tree. After a few warm weeks with no rain. You'll see lots of leaves with no orange or brown. The leaves change from green, to yellow, to red, then to black before the edges crisp up and turn ash white around the edges.

To help identify each frame, I'm labeling each with a title.

A couple of honorable mentions featuring my bonsai tree. It produces these very small leaves at the end of Summer, and when they expanded only slightly, it maintained the aged red wine color tone.

In the coming week, I'm going to be sharing recent photos of the changing season.

Expect to find plenty of photo collections shot by @creativetruth featuring colorful leaves, trees, flowers, and even winter berries.

My goal in this series is to share the wonderful sights of the season around me with the many people abroad in the wider world who may not be familiar with the beautiful sights in nature where I live.

Follow along with me, and enjoy the evocative sights!
