The woods in fall

taken on a camping trip in the southern indiana woods this fall.

ginkgo paint

ginkgo leaves are my favorite.  growing up we had a set of children’s encyclopedias that had a “choose your own adventure” by matching the correct leaf to tree and berry and nut.  never having seen one, the ginkgo leaves seemed so exotic to me.  even though indianapolis is full of ginkgoes, i’m still captured by their uniqueness, especially when their leaves paint the ground yellow.

i turned around on my bike today as to not miss this site.  as i was photographing, three girls asked me to take their picture.  here you are ladies!  :)

Thanksgiving at the market

yesterday we stocked up for thanksgiving at the market.  a warehouse space full of people and vegetables and good food and children gives me so much hope.
