Leaves, raindrops, moss

leaves.jpg

Here's the obligatory picture of autumn leaves. What caught my eyes was not the purple leaves, or the moss, or the nice contrast with the granite curb, or even how the leaves match the brick sidewalk, but the drops of morning rain which have been sitting around all day, looking all pearly how they reflect the overcast sky. The picture doesn't quite catch it either, how bright the raindrops are. What I really mean to say is, it's wonderful to be able to take a walk in my neighborhood, on both feet (no wheelchair, no cane or crutches), and take pictures of things again.
