黄葉

Kouyou (autumn colors)
at my school...

...at the tea house in Goshoin Park on the school grounds






























...the front of the school. Just to the right of the overhang is a momoji
(Japanese maple) that looks likes it's on fire
(sorry - still using my camera's phone, so you'll have to use your imagination)

Just a couple of reference shots for my sketchbook...



Here's a museum at the botanical garden I visited on a school field trip in Sapporo. It was nice to see something different than the traditional Japanese for a change.















These maple leaves will be turning scarlet soon to herald the arrival of fall...I'd like to see this pattern in fabric.




















Here's a little nod to Weston -
(since I didn't have any peppers :) )
Actually, I'm thinking this could be inspiration for a new kind of potato chip...
