The original Canadian Mapleleaf trucks were Montreal-licence-built 1-1/2-ton to five-ton models that were originally developed by Menard Motor Truck Company of Ontario. They were produced between 1919 and 1922.
The better-known Maple Leaf models were built at General Motors’ Oshawa plant in Canada, from 1930 until 1948.
As per online info.
Amongst the missing parts, are the big chrome, independently attached bug-eyed style headlamps. The wiring however, seems to be intact and is seen protruding through the sturdy metal of the large, flared-out front fenders.
This vintage find was captured in the Central Interior Region of British Columbia

Seasons change and so did I
You need not wonder why
You need not wonder why
There's no time left for you
No time left for you

The effect was made by photographing leaves at some distance through a window with raindrops on it that was close to the lens. The water droplets created the circular foreground bokeh.

I cannot live fast enough!
For a swirl of rushing air
Catches the red leaves from my feet
And scatters them everywhere.
I cannot live fast enough!
Look! those trees were green and now are bare
And over the cold horizon hills
The winter sun-fires glare.
I have not lived fast enough!
I must hurry, must run, must dare,
There is time yet for a red leaf
To tangle itself in my hair!
~Eda Lou Walton, "A Song," c.1919
I can so relate to these lyrics - autumn is slipping away so fast and I feel there is so much autumn beauty I still want to capture!

It's mid-August so too early for Wisconsin's maple leaves to be turning colors, but don't tell that to these leaves that have decided to display their lovely hues!

The leaves in Ontario are changing colours rather quickly now saying goodbye to summer and welcoming autumn, one of my favorite seasons
A few maple leaves were seen in the scrubby bush. They were pretty big on a small tree.

These are some of the leaves I found under one single Maple tree. I was in awe of all the shades of color in the hundreds of leaves that had fallen.
Here's some basic info on how and why leaves change color in the Fall:
Leaves are nature's food factories. A chemical called chlorophyll helps make photosynthesis happen. Chlorophyll is what gives plants their green color. As summer ends and autumn comes, the days get shorter and shorter. This is how the trees know to begin getting ready for winter.
During winter, there is not enough light or water for photosynthesis. The trees will rest, and live off the food they stored during the summer. They begin to shut down their food-making factories. The green chlorophyll disappears from the leaves. As the bright green fades away, we begin to see yellow and orange colors. Small amounts of these colors have been in the leaves all along. We just can't see them in the summer, because they are covered up by the green chlorophyll.
Happy Friday friends!! :-)
