Burning Maple Leaf


I loved the color of this beautiful leaf, so dramatic!
Do you know why leaves change color? Wiki has some very nice information about it:
Autumn leaf color is a phenomenon that affects the normally green leaves of many deciduous trees and shrubs by which they take on, during a few weeks in the autumn season, various shades of red, yellow, purple, and brown. The phenomenon is commonly called autumn colours or autumn foliage in British English and fall colors, fall foliage, or simply foliage in American English.
In some areas of Canada and the United States, "leaf peeping" tourism is a major contribution to economic activity. This tourist activity occurs between the beginning of color changes and the onset of leaf fall.
There is a detailed explanation of why the leaves change color. Very interesting and worth reading!
