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.

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...

Thanks for reviving that memory.
