Exploration of a Sugar Maple Tree

Under normal circumstances, at this time of year (fall) and at this time of day, I would be in my car or on a train on my way to work or already at work. By the time I return home from work, it would be dark outside. Because the global pandemic has kept me working remotely, I am "seeing" this sugar maple (Acer saccharum) tree in my backyard for the first time. I read that Sugar maples have a fall foliage colour range from yellow to orange to red, but this specimen is mostly yellow.

    Lovely collection of yellow leaves - I am impressed as well to see you are using film! I still have a film camera, but haven't used it in years.

      I'm happy I documented it. The leaves have all fallen. The tree is bare.
