Painted leaves




Bittersweet October.  The mellow, messy, leaf-kicking, perfect pause between the opposing miseries of summer and winter.  
Carol Bishop Hipps

Leaves are falling here now - our lawn is all scattered in yellow, red, orange, gold and brown, and when i walk to work by foot, as i often do, i love to look at the leaves on the pavement like little fished in a pond. I spotted these fabulous pictures over at my spanish blogfriend Elena, and just found them so magical i had to show you! Have a fab midweek, love from germany!

    Hi Martina,

    Very pretty painted leaves! Inspiring!

    Our son-in-law was in a bad car accident. We have been busy helping babysit our granddaughter so our daughter can spend time with him at the hospital. We appreciate any prayers said on his behalf.

    Have a beautiful day! Thank you for your sweet comments...:)

    xoxo...Gloria

    Have never seen a coloured leaf like this before.
    A lot of effort gone in here.
