Sonekyuryo Park

曽根丘陵公園のモミジ

Kofu city, Yamanashi pref, Japan

Went on a hike in the woods with my kids, blazing our own trail through the forest to see what we could find. Along the way we collected some interesting and unusually colorful leaves. This one was one of my favorites.

UPDATE: If you're curious, I used my soft-box with an open back that I placed a black foamboard behind. I used a spotlight in the foreground about 45 degrees off and blocked the light from bleeding into the background to keep it dark.

I miss this gorgeous tree. I adore maple trees more than anything.

We have thought this was a red maple, but come to find out, red maples have green leaves... Anyone know what kind this is??

Enjoyed a beautiful fall afternoon walk last weekend in Moraine Hills State Park. Most of the trees were past their best colors (although a few are still completely green). We came across this spectacular orange maple and shot it a number of different ways - this shot, with some of the leaves back-lit, captures just a bit of the beauty of this tree.

Wide-angle lens became my favorite.

Always so colorful this time of year. I very much enjoy the orange reddish colors of the maple leaves here in the yard.

It's dark, it's big

Maples have started to turn into red and yellow now.

This is from Ekerö in Sweden.

That's a lot of maple trees squeezed into a shot! Taken next to Paugus Bay, in Laconia, New Hampshire.

Thanks to 'Puzzler' for tracking down the ID from another Flickr members photo - 'Mollivan Jon'

They should have this leaf on the Canadian flag. Two-tone is nicer than the all-red.
