Description


Array of Fallen Leaves

These are not false colors! I took this last year right outside my house. I think because of heavy rains and the fact that we were on the Mississippi River, there were certain molds in the soil which had a tendency to turn certain types of leaves to blue - even purple. I haven't seen this on the ranch as yet... reds and yellows, just as you'd expect.
