  2. Beautiful colors, but I have no clue as to why this leaf has them this time of year...from the spots I'd have to guess parasite, but that's totally a guess.

  5. I have seen a few leaves lke this myself, Dusty, and I got almost panicky thinking, "Is this fall already starting?! We just got summer !!". I still don't know what it is, and its pretty and all but I'm nowhere near ready for fall.

  6. maintenant avec l'informatique, on peu faire voir ce que l'on veut, c'est assez impressionnant et je trouve assez inquiétant

    Now with computers, just to see what one wants is quite impressive and I find it quite disturbing

  7. Gorgeous. Would love to see pics of Minneapolis architecture. Must be some great old buildings there! Kudos for the Billie Holiday soundtrack!

  8. It's the blue-gray background color that makes the reds on this leaf really stand out.
    Are you sure it's not just what passes for summer waaaaay up north?

  9. Funny that you should post this, I was driving today and passed several trees where the leaves are starting to change colour. Its strange, but that is the joy of Mother Nature!

  10. The tree leaves have been visited by some bugs which accounts for the darker spots.

    It is the last of July and our leaves here in Ohio will begin to turn next month and last through late September.

    I am not looking forward to winter.
