Fallen leaves at Witty's Beach

I had already taken some nice photos around Witty’s Lagoon on a foggy fall day, and was returning up the steps to the parking lot. My camera was already stowed away for the climb back when I looked down on the steps and saw the leaves which had fallen recently.

I thought, I was just going to step all over them, but saw how nice they looked and thought how they would all disintegrate in a few weeks and would be gone. So I took the shot and later when I had looked at it, thought it turned out OK.

I try to always look around me when I’m on a photo shoot/hike, but this was one time when just looking down as I was walking paid off!
