Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate the holiday & a Happy Ordinary Day to all who don't...
"I celebrated Thanksgiving in an old-fashioned way. I invited everyone in my neighborhood to my house, we had an enormous feast, and then I killed them and took their land."

ROFLMAO! I love Jon Stewart. This is a superbly lovely and deceptively simple shot; it's harder than one might imagine to get a great shot of a carpet of leaves. You did well!

bravo denise's comment---I've shot fall leaves a million times, and not one shot is worth posting. Yours definitely is. It's in your texture, a grain that makes these almost like skin; and in the very saturated yellows, and of course your signature reds and browns. And the detail in the ground beneath, also with deep grain. It's alive. popping in so many tiny places. Beautiful work, Claude. I studied with a native american medicine woman---legends and poems, not actual medicine (you have to dedicate yourself to many years for that)---and she said, "imagine someone thinking that this planet can be bought and sold...You plant your 'flag', a silly piece of cloth, and that makes you 'owner' of it, and of me? One storm and your whole life can be blown away. Imagine such ego. Conquest---beyond being criminal---is just plain laughable."

You had me going with the Jon Stewart quote but when I thought about it - all of those leaves are dead yet so pretty!
