The Autumn Leaves

Get Pushed Challenge 486
My partner challenged me to depict loneliness. The challenge for me was not to repeat a previous photo so I opted for the photo to depict song lyrics which I felt expressed loneliness.

The falling leaves
Drift by the window
The autumn leaves
Of red and gold
......
Since you went away
The days grow long
And soon I'll hear
Old winter's song

But I miss you most of all
My darling
When autumn leaves
Start to fall

from the song written byJacques Prevert / Joseph Kosma

@randystreat Hi partner, did I miss your challenge for me?

[Kathy]

@30pics4jackiesdiamond Thank you very much Jackie.
@jacqbb Thank you for the feedback. And OMG! I did. How about sitting or standing somewhere. Close your eyes. Then open them and take a shot of what captures your eyes first.
