Location: Ruffey Lake Park, Australia

On this year, the autumn and winter we experienced was mild and some of the plants had not entirely shed their leaves even in the depths of winter. On a walk through the park I chanced upon these two leaves on an otherwise bare tree.

I enjoyed how the single pair of leaves contrasted with the starkness of the rest of the tree, and how they seemed to float above background of green clover. To emphasize the presence of the leaves and turn the clover patch into a dreamy blur, I zoomed in as much as possible and shot from the minimum focusing distance of my lens, using a wide aperture setting.
