Fall leaves are one of the high points of the season. Who doesn’t like fall leaves? Except for the people who have to rake them up, of course.

I’m so glad you posted the leaves. I’ve been trying to decide what kind of maple to plant for fall color.

In your professional opinion, which has the prettiest/showiest color?

Those would look so pretty running down my Thanksgiving tables! I have a set of paper leaves that look quite a bit like that. Wish I had time a few weeks ago to collect and press leaves. Nice shots and not crazy.

It must be the second grade teacher that remains in me but I can totally relate to doing this (even though I’ve been out for 10 years).
I also find myself kneeling beside my pond in the spring with my camera to capture images of the frogs and toads. I’m sure my neighbors think I’m a nut with way too much time on her hands but what they don’t know is that if I didn’t take the time to do these things I very well might go nutty!

LOVE the leaves! I miss fall.
And love the photos of the statue too.
Good luck on making sense out of it all however.

I especially like the picture of the leaves spread out on the table with the open book and cup of coffee.

My grandson – at barely 4 years old – just said yesterday that he wants to “make a leaf collection, put them in a book and write down what kind of tree they come from”. He probably thinks that will keep his mama from throwing all his precious “weafs” out the car window!

Leaves are a wonderful thing to write about! Trees rock. (I don’t know whether rocks tree, though. If you ever find out, please post about it.)

If you want to know exactly how crazy you are for taking/posting all those pictures of that statue, I suggest you go track down the episode of Doctor Who called ‘Blink’.

Oh, I really liked the fall leaves photo in your last post “Madness Behind the Method,” so don’t tell me you can’t “do” fall leaves!!! Fall leaves are classic. And now that I live out west in the desert, I feel VERY nostalgic about them. Especially because I don’t have to rake them.

Love the leaves – especially since all we get around here are yellow aspens. *sniff* I miss fall colors.

I LOVE the leaves; don’t see that beauty in these parts much, mostly palms and scrub oaks. So, thank you, Rechelle and don’t ever doubt your saneness. :)
