Newfallen Leaves

Yesterday morning on my way to the barn I was greeted by a carpet of newfallen leaves which had rained down from the big soft maple tree by the house.  Wanted to catch a photo of them before they become brown and curled, which doesn’t take very long. 

This pumpkin looked photoworthy, too, in the morning light. 

When gathering up pumpkins from the garden I try to make sure the cute curliques remain attached to the stems.
