Autumn Kaleidoscope

Have you ever really looked at the tiniest of details in an autumn leaf?

It is possible to see the outline of each individual cell

The ever-changing colours fascinate us every single year.

A kaleidoscope of shapes and colours 
speak to all our senses
both visual and emotional.

Each line leads us on a different journey

And the fragility of an autumn leaf
reminds us of the eternal cycle of life.

  15. These are so vibrant and very well observed. They make me thing of dyed silk. I see others made a connection to textiles too. In any case, a lovely souvenir of this magical time of year.
