Autumn

I took this a while ago and finally decided I wanted to upload it...

This project drove me crazy! I tried multiple times, over a few days. The light wouldn't get right, the weather was sucky, the wind was impossible, and the leaves were only good for a few hours after I cut into them... after that they'd start to look bad. I'm still not that happy with it, I know it could be much better. This one came out the best out of all my attempts. I also wish I had clothes pins instead of these little clasp things. But I had a vision and just took what I had to make it

I cut all the letters out of these fallen leaves with tiny sewing scissors.

I will most likely try this photo again next year when they leaves are all fallen but not all crunchy like they are now!
