This is a really lovely shot with the light on the leaves. Funny comment too! thanks for the comment about macro shots for macro Monday.. I understood what you meant, it does makes sense.
What a great combination! I love the lighting. Love that your hubby would think coming over with a camera meant helping! Mine thought camera in hand meant sitting down to dinner, not taking photos of food he had put on the table. So silly!
You have glorified the rake to a whole new level -- that it gets to have close contact with such beauty! The light is absolutely perfect, and the perspective equally perfect for portraying the rake in its most glorious state. Well done!
* Did you have your camera on a very fast setting or was he working really slowly?
I see he must be in to pick up leaves, he is an industrious man
