Little lonesome leaf

Whenever I see an email from Palo Alto photographer Laurie Naiman in my in-box, I know it's well worth reading. He always has something interesting to say, and unusual images to share.

Laurie is from Toronto and knows what fall color really is. He agreed with me that this autumn has been particularly striking. Definitely better than in years past, when he took the photo at right, "Stuck!"

The poor Palo Alto leaf is not only captured, but also has no scarlet to make it proud. Still, the contrast with the blue sky is striking. Wonderful image as always, Laurie.
