Dry maple leaves...

They're turning brown and dropping before they can turn red, sadly. Another filler for the day.

A great closeup - I'm hoping we will get some color before this happens to our trees.

Congratulations on completing 9 years on 365. Once you start you get hooked on this site. Looking forward for more shots from your end. Great textures in this shot. There is beauty in these withered leaves.
