Had my cellphone with me.
The Gingko has fallen. I only learned a few years back that the Gingko tree loses its leaves in one fail drop, usually all of them within a day or two

(149,620 posts)1. I love your shadowy photos, my dear Mira!
The Ginkgo must think like this: OK, get ready to drop, leaves! Ready, set, drop! and there they are, on the ground, ready for sweeping up.

Makes for good pics.

(13,904 posts)5. I took a ride on my motorcycle a few years ago. The summer light was at a low angle in the morning
and we were riding thru a patch of tall skinny trees with no leaves.. The shadows projected on to the road looked like bar codes. Way cool looking. Of course I did not have my camera out and was not about to take a pic whilst riding.. I've been looking for that shot again for years...

Perhaps for the Fall Contest?

(31,388 posts)7. We had a gingko tree in the yard in St Joseph, MO
It was spectacular when the leaves turned color. And then one morning you'd get up and they were all on the ground!
Thanks for reviving that memory.
