Dying Leaves

Wonderful autumnal capture with great use of bokeh !!

Thank you Jaap.

Wish you a peaceful Sunday!

A beautiful image!

Thank you very much Annemarie.

The photo is beautiful with the light shining through the leaves and the lovely background bokeh!

Horse chestnuts in Germany also are all suffering and slowly dying off from that leaf-mining moth:-( Obviously the only help is to plant sweet chestnuts instead which will grow well because of the heating climate.

Many thanks for your kind comments Gudrun. Glad you like it.

I thought the problem was just in the UK.........but obviously not. We've lost a lot of trees here!

Dieses Übergangsstadium hast du mit dieser schönen Aufnahme wunderbar gezeigt lieber Keith,da bin ich bei dir,auch Vergängliches hat immer ihre Schönheit und du hast diese Blätter auch durch das tolle Bokeh ganz toll präsentiert :))

Wünsche noch einen schönen Sonntag,ganz liebe Grüße Güni :))

Thank you so much Guni.............glad you enjoyed this one.

lovely macro Keith!

Thank you so much Wierd.

Outstanding bokeh, Keith!!!***

Glad you like it Stephan...........many thanks.

The end of the summer is the end of the leaves !

You're right of course Ulrich.......thanks for commenting.

Magnifique!!!!!!!!!!!

Many thanks Michelle..........it's good of you to drop by and comment.

Decaying beauties indeed !

Thank you Isabel.

Yes the horse chestnut trees are certainly under threat, and many are on their last legs, but I know of one or two that seem to be OK. The infected trees here have sparse leaves that are totally brown and withered.
I hope you are staying safe and will not be adversely affected by the coming storm, Keith.

It's such a shame about the trees...........we've lost quite a few near where we are.

We were staying in Exmouth but we didn't go anywhere near the coast until after the storm, most of the access roads had been barricaded anyway, but it would have been stupid and irresponsible to try! Overall, Exmouth was OK.

Wunderschön! Tolles Bokeh!

Thank you Wilhelm.
