At the shore of the Johnson Reservoir at Fort Robinson, I found this twig that had seen better days. Its last leaf is a brilliant red, shown here contrasting with a green background. I like the glow of light in the veins of the leaf, with a counterpoint made in the dark veins of the dried leaf above.
