I'm still dealing with a knee/leg problem but felt I could walk a little today. So I went out looking for potential leaf images for the weekly challenge.
Any leaves around here are brown and lifeless. When I saw this scene, it literally sucked the breath right out of me. It took me back to my college days when I had a Literature class. We had to read and analyze poetry. In the same sense that poetry contains hidden meanings, this image speaks of great sadness.
Some of you know I take photos of memorial benches to remind the families their loved ones are not forgotten. When I saw this view, I immediately perceived the withered leaves to represent the lives of loved ones who have passed. And in the distance, the memorial benches represent the hearts that are broken. The juxtaposition of the two really hits hard and fills me with a sadness I've never experienced when taking bench photos. This image gives me great pause.
