Month 1: Topic Minimalism

Week 2: "First Leaves of Spring:" I always cherish the arrival of the first leaves of Spring in the Northeast. They are delicate and graceful. The sky was overcast and without detail. WIth a telephoto lens, I explored from beneath several sprigs of trees against the sky and chose this one. There was already almost no color, but I converted it to black and white in order to enhance the concept of minimalism.
