Leaf

Hello! It's good to be back in the Dark Wood after such a break. I wanted to show you this beautiful eucalyptus gum leaf which I picked up on the weekend, while walking here:

The reds were brighter on Sunday (so much so that my husband said "Has someone painted that leaf?") but I think it looks quite lovely now as it fades, so much like nature all around us right now, as we all prepare for the coming summer heat.
