Autumn leaves

I received today's get pushed challenge while I was sitting at the PC in the attic. I instantly looks out of the window, saw these leaves and grabbed my camera.

The challenge was " I notice you are doing a black and white month and in one of your photos you said you had captured a building instead of trying to shoot autumn leaves in black and white. Well I am challenging you to do just that! Capture the feeling or emotion of autumn leaves in black and white!" from Joanne @gijo1610

The window in the reflection is the one I was looking out of!

@gijo1610 Hope you like it - I told you I was going straight out!! :0)
Hope to try more this week - it's a great challenge!

This is lovely - great lines from the surface and the shadows, as well as the shapes of the leaves - fits the challenge very well!

@gijo1610 totally found them, didn't move a thing! I can see this puddle and its leaves on our decking from my window in the attic, and it is under a silver birch tree! It's dead slippery on that decking too!! :0)
