It’s time for another year of Festival of Leaves. This is the place to share your love for autumn and rain, for dark evenings and cups of tea, of books and all that you love during this time of the year.

My granddaughter, Isla (21 months), enjoying the autumn leaves
This is the last week of the autumn challenge so if you have some autumn leaves to share, then please visit Verena’s site and join in. She’ll be very happy to see you.
(Macro Monday will be taking a break for a couple of months )
Earth laughs in flowers 
Babe-in-the-leaves. How very lovely 🙂
I’ve always wanted a Japanese Maple but can’t find them in the desert. And what a child. Just gorgeous!
No I suspect Japanese maples are not desert plants. Have to make do with a Joshua tree or two 😉
No comparison, though maybe in Japan a Joshua tree is highly prized! 🙂
Such a sweetie! I love this picture so much, Jude!
Thank you for taking part again this year, I adore your photography and am so happy that you joined the challenge. Have a wonderful Christmas time and hope to see you again next year! xxx
Thanks for hosting it Verena, it is always fun to join in and in fact we still have plenty of leaves down here in Cornwall, hanging on!! You have a good time too !
