Where does life come from?
Surely from the stars; as a sweet magic dust fallen a long time ago on a desperate desert, life came from above, from something, or from someone, like a wonderful seed, like a beautiful present, and now our planet is –or should be- a fantastic green garden, where every death generates a new life, through an everlasting circle, autumn leaves enrich our ground as our artworks enrich our souls...
I’m happy to feel myself as some tiny part of a fallen star... And I’ll try all my life to bring my modest part of humus to humanity...

This is just a reflection of trees into a small river, close to my house, and this golden fallen leaf will feed now my colourful world...

Canon EOS 300D, 18-55 mm Canon zoom. Just clarity and frame added with Paint Shop Pro, a bit of saturation on the leaf with Photoshop...

Wonderful!
Like an impressionist painting with a touch of fauvism(saturated leaf/star). The leaf is standing ON from where it comes... lovely composition!

You are not a fallen star. You are shining high above to illuminate our lives with your thoughts and images.
This image is l
ike maya-illusion-which makes us think that death is the end and birth is the beginnig. Leaf on the water surface is no longer alive, and yet it is the only objects which is not deformed by waves. Trees seems to be alive, but they are already on the other side....To me a perfect circle of life....

I am at a complete loss for words that describe your photos/art. Perhaps if I recalled more of my school French I just might find one or two, but in English I can only compare them to pieces of poetry or the songs of birds heard as dawn blushes the sky pink.
