The serrated form of a hickory leaf is visible as shadow behind another leaf of the same tree, partway down Piney Woods Church Road. I love the way that sunlight turns leaves into miniature theaters for the play of shadows.

Early this morning I set out down Piney Woods Church Road. Again and again, I was drawn to the play of shadow and light among the leaves of roadside shrubs and trees. In this image, the saw-toothed edge of a hickory leaf (mockernut, I think) stands out sharply against the surrounding darkness, like the first burst of sunrise a couple of hours before.
