The autumn leaves

Some leaves just don't want to hit the ground.

Nice eye. That looks like one of the Photoshop examples in a British photography magazine I just bought. Even more impressive that the colors and orientation of the leaf were real.

Thanks for the nice comments. Mike, yeah, I was surprised to see the leaf just hanging there on the cement wall of our house with no visible means of support. Very strange.

Deb, I wasn't aware there was going to be a new 26 things. I'm incredibly busy with work and projects around the house, but I may give it a shot anyway. I noticed that one of the items in the last one was "construction", and if they include that in the new one, I should have plenty of potential subjects for that next month without having to leave my own basement.

What do you mean there is no cat?

"You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat."

- Albert Einstein, explaining radio


There used to be a cat
