Fall interrupted
A single poplar leaf is released after its summer mission of making chlorophyll is complete. It drifts down until its fall is interrupted on the sharp green needles of a young fir, where it dries and curls before a gust of wind lifts it again and carries it to the welcome embrace of the gentle earth. There it will join thousands more in the ancient cycles of life and death.
Taken at Mineral Lake, East Kootenay, British Columbia, Canada.
