A Solitary Leaf

 

leaf with KK autumn burst and scripted texture logo

I spied a single leaf on the deck the other day and ran to grab the camera before it blew away. Some of the trees are beginning to turn colour here.   For Kim Klassen’s Texture Tuesday challenge I added two layers of Autumn burst and then one layer of Scripted autumn to add some texture.  I am also joining The Creative Exchange over at Lisa Gordon Photography.    Valerie

Hi Val
Wow!
Very nice in that the leaf isn't perfect and the textures you chose really enhance it.
