Some in Tags, Some in Rags, and Some in Velvet Gowns
Autumn in Melbourne is always beautiful, with many wonderful deciduous trees full of colour like this one which I found in the inner Melbourne suburb of North Fitzroy. This leaf may be a little tattered and torn, but it is still beautiful. It reminded me of the line from the very old children’s nursery rhyme “Hark! Hark! The Dogs Do Bark” which talks about the beggars coming to town, with “some in tags, some in rags and some in velvet gowns”. Which of those do you think this leaf is?
When I took this photo, it was still mid autumn, and it was a perfect autumnal day in Melbourne: sunny, but not too bright, warm, but not hot, and perfectly still. Therefore I thought I'd go for a walk and take advantage of the sunny conditions and take some photographs. As it was, this is just one of hundreds that I took.
