 After thinking for days what I could come up with for this challenge, nature presented this striking image to me. A single yellow leaf had fallen from a branch off a potted fig tree I had at home and was left alone amongst the other dying foliage. Not much editing was done here as it is pretty much what came out of the camera ! I had taken about 40 shots and had to narrow it down to just one !
