Shadows of summer

Okay, here’s another form of sidewalk art.

I’ve already written about how beautiful fallen leaves can be on the sidewalk, but it turns out that they leave their penumbra on the pavement long after they’ve disappeared. I don’t know what causes this, but I feel like the imprint lasts a long time. They mostly appear to be maple leaves, but there are some other types, too.

And I realized that even pine needles leave their mark.

Amazing.
