Beech Leaves - Fall                                                              Steve Dixon
One day in early fall, I went for one of my favorite short hikes, to Rattlesnake Lodge (or where it
used to be) off the Blue Ridge Parkway.  The hike covers a couple of miles through a beautiful
hardwood cove with trees of various ages and sizes, a small stream, and lush undergrowth.  Just
beside the trail I spotted this small beech tree just beginning its life journey, and even perhaps
experiencing its first autumn.  I love the shape of the tiny branches, and the contrasting shape of
its leaves against the galax and other plants underneath.  I think the photo has a soothing, quiet
quality that I love to find.
Sizes
As most people seem to
prefer them, prices are for
framed prints, ready to
hang.  I use a very nice
matt black wood frame 7/8
of an inch wide, with a white
mat.  If you would like to
order unframed prints, go to
the "Purchase" page for
pricing.
