The Changing of the Leaves

"The more often we see things around us
- even the beautiful and wonderful things -
the more they become invisible to us.
That is why we often take for granted the beauty of this world:
the flowers, the trees, the birds, the clouds -
even those we love.
Because we see things so often, we see them less and less."

Joseph B. Wirthlin

In my efforts to live more consciously
and pay closer attention to my surroundings
I have been watching the changing of the leaves

and documenting it with pictures and dates.

Miraculous!

"Nature never hurries.
Atom by atom, little by little she achieves her work."

Ralph Waldo Emerson
