@linnypinny Thank you. I take most of my shots the day before I post them. This takes out the stress value for me. Therefore, I cannot use this for the theme (the wrong date). I will try to take other leaf shots this week.
@olivetreeann I was surprised to see such Autumn colors. This was an unknown perennial in the garden. The leaves were fairly low to the ground. I would normally think that tree leaves would have these colors--not a perennial.
@pyrrhula Thank you! I am always glad when I find something that might be a good abstract and then actually photograph it in such a way that it is an abstract.
