Today is the fist day of fall here in the Northern Hemisphere. Naturally we do not have a lot of leaf color yet but a common flower for autumn is the mum and their leaves can be quite beautiful.
I love autumn so I am hosting the 2022 Festival of Leaves Challenge. I will post every Thursday and I invite everyone to join in at any time through the week for any or all weeks.
This challenge usually runs about 10-12 weeks, with the last week being a wrap up. You can link up here or on any of the individual weeks. Be sure to tag your post Festival of Leaves so it is easy to find in the reader.

Hi Dawn, thank you for hosting FOL again! I managed to include some autumn leaf close-ups in my Sunday Stills post. Seems fall has a slow start everywhere! https://secondwindleisure.com/2022/09/18/sunday-stills-maxed-out-garden-macros-and-close-ups/

I don’t know if you’ve asked Cee Neuner to include your challenge on the list she keeps on her blog. Worth a thought!
