Japanese Maple

10/27/20 Laurelhurst neighborhood

My leaf-peeping tour earlier this week took me through the upscale Laurelhurst neighborhood, where I saw many lovely deciduous trees showing off their colors. While many of the larger-leafed maples are nearing peak, the Japanese maples with tiny leaves are only just beginning. Most are a haze of pale green and golden yellow turning toward orange. I parked alongside a fence bordering the Sand Point Country Club golf course to sketch this one.

Happy Halloween from Weather Bunny and her friend!
