Wait!  Before you rake those leaves up, let me get some pictures!

Have you ever taken the time to truly appreciate the beauty of fallen leaves?  I took a walk today looking down instead of up, and this is what I saw:

Red maple (Acer rubrum) leaves strewn across the sidewalk.  Not always red, their autumn leaves can also be orange or yellow—or all three.

Sure, red maple leaves are brilliant when they’re still on the tree, but after they fall, they continue to glow for a little while like hot coals.
