Seasonal Images with a Theme

While paddling on the Wapsipinicon River this morning a common theme wove its way through my photography. Yes, I was documenting some of the remaining color of the season. But, I was also memorializing what used to be and what will be no more. I watched as a couple of leaves floated past my canoe, then slowly drifted to the bottom of the river. Elsewhere I found small trees beginning their lives on logs in the water- once trees along the river - with neither the logs or the young vegetation destined to remain long.

Leaves, trees, logs, and seasons - all are fleeting. These pictures illustrate what was here this morning, but may not be around tomorrow.
