Autumn Leaves Old And New And The Leaf Of The Day

"Autumn colors remind us, we are all dancing in the wind."

~Lorin Morgan-Richards

While out hunting leaves yesterday, I came upon this pretty shrub. I had no idea what it was, and it wasn't particularly autumn-ish, but it had lovely leaves that were fading from a dark green, to almost white. I was intrigued by it. I am not a big fan of shrubs and bushes, in my opinion they are nothing more than homes for spiders, but this one really caught my eye. The leaves, when there was enough to be bunched together, formed an unusual shape, almost like a flower, or maybe a star. In some ways it also reminded me of a very small white poinsettia, but after a little detective work online, I learned it was the leaves of an Azalea bush.And that  pretty much explains why I hadn't seen it before, I am not a big fan of Azaleas either, but now I am a big fan of it's leaves!
