One Hundred Leaves

Like many of us, I have been enchanted by leaves since childhood. I've saved them between book pages in the autumn, drawn them, gathered twigs of cottonwood leaves to put in jars, and covered them with paint to bray onto paper as prints. Lately, I've started photographing them. Inspired by Tollipop's One Hundred Dresses project, I've launched One Hundred Leaves to celebrate the beauty of leaves. The photos may not always be terribly outstanding, but I will share them because they speak to me and perhaps they will speak to you as well. And one hundred is just a loose guideline - I well suspect that I may end up with more than that! I'd love to know what you think, and I'd love links to your leaf photos as well!
