If I Could...
As I’m sure many of you know, Atlanta has been experiencing a severe drought. Driving around, looking for signs of autumn, there are few. The leaves on most of the trees are just turning brown and falling. Once in a while, a brilliant –colored maple will flash by. For those of us who love the Fall, and the magnificence that usually only comes for a month or so, any little sign is a gift. That is why, when I saw the leaves on this tree, I gasped. I had never seen such a range of colors at one time. Due to a GPS system that went berserk today, I was already late for my destination, but I returned to take a couple of pictures before I left the area. This is my first nature photo with my D80 and 18-200 VR lens and I love it. It is as though the powers that be gave me wonderful presents today: The brilliance of a spectrum of colors; the time to capture it for my continued viewing and, hopefully, the enjoyment of others; and the reminder that no matter the conditions, there is always something beautiful around.
These leaves contain all of the colors of the seven chakras.
