The Leaves



Alright, we're getting close to the Fall season, and it is amazing out here in Japan. The most colorful tree here in the Fall is the Japanese Maple, which goes from bright green to a fire red and everything warm in between. This was taken at the Silver Palace in Kyoto last Fall, and I was just amazed that this top part of the pond could fill up with leaves, but not a single one went down the mini waterfall into the pond below. The colors aren't as vibrant here, since they have already fallen, but I assure you that there will be more to come as the temperatures drop.
