This is in my yard today. Not sure, but I think it's a Japanese Maple. Whatever it is, I like the leaves. They get very red in the fall and winter, but start to turn green this time of the year.

• Beautiful!! The little covers that protect the leaves while they're still in the bud stage really add to this photo. Great shot!

• This looks like an aspen to me,not like the Japanese Maple I have in my yard. Mine is a deep purple red and resembles a Canadian Maple Leaf. Turns a brilliant red in the fall. Really pretty!

• Gorgeous macro shot. The detail is so crips, even the tiny hairs on the leaf. The colours are so vibrant. Nice one.
