Leaves – Foto Challenge

The Friday Foto Challenge – “Leaves”  they offer pattern, colour and broad variety, fall colours, deep veins, odd shapes … My sheltie, Molly, is fascinated by falling leaves and can spend hours chasing them in the fall and I find their intricacies just as fascinating to photograph… here are some of favourite pics. Enjoy!
