How Trees Fall Apart

Hello!

You only get to experience 1 fall a year, and by the time you read this you’re probably older than 15. This means you probably have only 65 falls left in you — remember to do your best to enjoy each one.

Anyway, this particular fall I took more of a look at the trees around me. I noticed that the green-yellow-red transition of leaves followed different patterns for different trees, and took photos of all the ones I could. Here follows the decay patterns of 4 different trees.
