Oak leaf with disease
Sunday, November 25th, 2012
Macricostas Preserve, Steep Rock, Warren, Connecticut. Did a short hike today and found a few oak leaves on the ground with Taphrina caerulescens. It sure is pretty for a fungal disease.

My Photo Magazines
It sure is unfortunate that this leaf is infected with that disease, but you’ve really made a beautiful photograph of it!!
I think that disease is very common among oak trees Gary. No doubt if I keep looking I’ll find an even more interesting specimen to shoot.
it looks like a small city from above…
I agree Edward, and in a way, it sort of is. A city of living fungi.
Beautiful nature shot with fantastic lighting.
Detroit?
Alex: Tongue in cheek? Maybe ground zero in Japan…
Actually, it was the tracts of abandoned homes in Motown that gave me the idea …
Alex. Right, gotcha. But, that big crater in the middle? GM headquarters?
