On my walk for coffee I stooped down on my knees to shoot this image but I ended up just staying there as I studied the patterns and colors nature was creating. While I watched the wind would rustle and move the leaves changing the pattern. The light changed as clouds moved above, casting a different light. The scene also changed as more leaves would fall and add to the scene. I was only there for a few minutes but it helped kick start my day.

I really enjoy the randomness of the forest floor as well Monte. Can spend hours just looking how various arrangements have taken place by chance.

Yes, you are one the photographers who looks down as well as up. What we discover at our feet may surprise and enrich us.

Hey, once you’re down there you might as well make it worthwhile, right? A potentially ordinary-looking scene made special by taking the time to look.

This was one of those times I just stayed there and watched. I’m a lttle slower getting up than I was 20 years ago. 🙂

I think photographers have a responsibility to shoot fall colors. Glad you’re doing your part, Monte.

I’m on it, Ken! Dusting my pants off when done.
