An unusual amount of frost had settled on everything overnight. The accumulation on these dead leaves was particularly dramatic.

An aggressive crop to show details of the frost that had accumulated overnight on some dead leaves beside s pathway.

A warmer-than-usual September means some of the leaves in Pine Cree Regional Park have changed colour, while others remain green for a while longer.

In Fall the leaves fall in random patterns created by gravity and the wind. As an exercise in macro photography I took some images in my garden of leaves from nearby trees, mixed with the lighter-coloured hosta leaves. The combinations of browns and beiges with the different shapes makes for an interesting study, successful or not.

Frost accumulatd on leaves that provide some nourishment for the squirrels that live in my neighbourhood.

After an extended period of foggy, overcast weather, a lot of frost had accumulated on every surface in my neighbourhood.

I discovered a Chevy 1100 truck in a back alley in Mankota, shortly after sunrise. The truck had several colours on its body, having served through many years before reaching its resting place. The morning dew and the leaves added to the colour. Don’t use this image on websites, blogs or other media without explicit permission. Copyright William Armstrong. 2019
