Description A picture taken at Mount Stewart (County Down, Northern Ireland), during the Harvest Fayre.

It was such a striking sight to see these two leaves in full blaze of colour, standing out from the mud and the trampled leaves. I walked past it at first, but quickly turned around to take a picture of it as it was just too striking.

I really like this picture. I like your choice of positioning for the leaves - down in the corner.
I'm glad that you caught this because it does make for a great photo.

Living in the moment, and then capturing it for the rest of us. Beautiful.

Quite the lessons that Nature teaches us; as the seasons change, and that life is full of wonder, and that nothing is truly permanent; and even in the mud there is beauty.

Excellent. Oddly I saw a very similar thing yesterday, didn’t photograph it and am still regretting it! Well done.

I walked on thinking there had been many pictures like this... but while walking onwards I kept saying 'but not of this leaf', and instantly turned around to take it.
