This week the photo challenge from WordPress is all about hue.  And here in Michigan our world is ablaze with color; everywhere we look trees are glowing.  So it would seem appropriate that the photo I chose to represent the concept of hue is filled with red maple leaves glowing in this afternoon’s waning light, right in my own back yard. (Click on photo to see all the details.)

I especially like the way the background seems to bisect the photo, winter’s blue grey on the left, the last bit of summer’s green on the right.  That’s what fall is here in Michigan….summer hangs on as long as it can but inevitably we are heading toward the neutrals of winter.
