In the very beginning of fall in Eastern Ontario, there are such gorgeous colours to be found even within a single leaf.
I saw this leaf at the playground when I was out with my kids, and decided to take a photo for inspiration for a drawing or painting later on. So I laid the leaf down on the rock I was sitting on and took the photo.
I like this photo so much I’m not sure I’m going to draw/paint this leaf after all

Oooh I love the water droplets on it!
It looks like you two could have been at the same park. Fall leaves are beautiful inspiration!
What gorgeous leaves! The stone backdrop does look very similar, doesn’t it?
these leaves are great! @LindyBlues @marionberries
has @Magpie seen these yet?
Nature provides some of the most beautiful things. Sometimes it’s hard to remember to take a moment to fully appreciate those gifts.
This is a lovely photo.
Stunning! Such vibrant colors. What do you use to take your photographs? They’re so brilliant!
Thank you so much!! I’m just using my phone, which has a better camera than any actual camera I’ve ever owned, lol! The phone is a Samsung Galaxy S23.
@LindyBlues I used my phone as well, a Samsun Galaxy S21. They do have great cameras. I love the vibrant colors of your leaf against the gray background. Very striking.
Beautiful contrast against the rock! Lovely colors.
