Long Days, Short Days

The days are dwindling, and so is the amount of light available for photography. My favorite contrast is that of slightly fluorescent leaves against a stark, wet tree trunk, or a conservative sky.

However, the leaves show up best when the sky is overexposed or just plain exuberant.

I found some leaves of another sort, gracing my countertop, about ten minutes ago. (Click to enlarge; they're subtle.) Now that the trees outside the kitchen window have given in, the sunlight pierces into the kitchen more strongly, and picks out the china pattern in relief.

And, finally, here is why the days get longer as they get shorter, this year:

Happy haunting, everyone!
