A collection of single leaves

These days, I have been drawn to photographing single autumn leaves on simple backgrounds.

All of these leaves are leaves I found on the ground that caught my eye. I even found a few on the floor of the parking garage at work or on my own garage floor. I moved the leaves to a different location--sometimes to my porch railing, sometimes to a flag stone on my back yard path, and a few times to a simple white board--for a photograph or two.

I find that each leaf has a character all its own.
