Oak Leaf
Saturday, October 20th, 2007
Warren, Connecticut. Our oak trees haven’t turned yet but a few oak leaves are falling. When I look at them on the ground they are the most boring brown color but when I hold one up to the light an intricate inner world becomes illuminated. Here you can see the movement of the drying and dying process and it almost seems like the movement is happening as you watch, like time lapse images of changing fractals on a computer screen.
