Here’s a second look at leaves approaching a chute on the Farmington River; this time, in toned black and white. The aim here was to stop the movement so that the leaves appear to float in space. The brightest points in the picture are where the leaf surfaces above the water.
The big leaves in the picture are from American sycamore; massive trees found along river banks in eastern North America. It was on one of these leaves, that Tom Sawyer wrote the reassuring note to his Aunt Polly, “We ain’t dead—we are only off being pirates.”

Many thanks… 👋🏼
Hi John and thanks for sharing your wonderful photos! Wishing you a beautiful Tuesday…😊⭐️🎶⭐️😊
Fine B&W. I appreciate your attempt to let them float in space; but the clues of water are deeply embedded in our perception.
I hear you. It’s a good thing, the way that embedding lets you wander briefly but always brings you back
