Hi everyone, Would you like to participate in the Weekly Photo Challenge? Just take a photo that is your interpretation of the theme and post it in this thread. The rules are rather simple.
- Your photo(s) should be your own, i.e., they should not have been taken by someone else. - Photoshopping is allowed but should be kept to the basics only rather than a total transformation. - Grab your camera, experiment, and, most of all, have fun.NOTEThis week’s theme was a joint suggestion by dennis9. (Thanks - Dennis, Brenda, and Matthew!)

Didn't have to go too far for this one - it's a sugar maple we planted around 15 years ago. The woodpeckers tap it for sugar in the spring, it's good for shade in the summer and it's very colourful in the fall. A nice blue sky today to contrast with the foliage. Added Sunday Oct 24: Same tree a week later - right at the peak of colour I suspect as there was a frost last night and the leaves are falling fast. Tony

From our yard today Leaves overhanging from our neighbours' yard. Amur maple ( Acer ginnala). The leaves are becoming sparse. A seedling amur maple in our yard that sprouted from seed from the tree above. Red Osier Dogwood ( Cornus sericea) leaves on a large specimen in our yard. The blending of the red and yellows is nice. These native shrubs adorn our lake edges and streambanks. Oddly it's lost few leaves yet despite a few hard frosts.

Can't remember name of first one, but is know as 'Red Robin'. The birds have already eaten most of the berries on my holly tree.

Succulents. I hope this is classed as foliage.

Foliage of the edible kind - our latest crop of microgreens. Seeds sown 5 days ago and ready for harvest today. Broccoli on the left and Radish on the right. An easy way to grow salad year round. Tony

Are they in a heat controlled environment, Tony? It must be too cold in Canada, otherwise.
