Golden Leaf

A single golden leaf clings to its branch beneath Yosemite Falls, dusted with fresh snow and glowing softly against the storm‑darkened forest. Its delicate veins catch the light like fine metalwork, turning this small, defiant survivor into a quiet symbol of endurance and natural elegance.

I really liked how it seemed to be defying mother nature by holding on to the branch of the tree even as snow clung to the edges of the leaf.

On November 6, 2018, a beautiful golden maple leaf, with red accents remaining on its edges, found its way to my insular Juliet balcony. Taken by its aesthetic qualities, I brought it inside and set the scene for it. I misted it, placed it on my petrified wood coaster, and placed my coaster on a melamine surface. It is good that I acted quickly - for the leaf shriveled up almost as soon as it dried. Ephemeral.
