Quite what this old lady will do with all those leaves I don’t know. And she’s certainly got plenty to pick from. But although it was a scene that was played out only yesterday, it’s presumably one that could also have been pictured anytime yesteryear.

Not sure why but there’s something kinda depressing about this picture……….
Lee says
Yeah, I know what you mean. It certainly struck me as a little bleak somehow.

Yep, it was every year when I lived in rural Japan. Makes great compost! grew fantastic Chinese cabbages in the rotted leaves.
Now in Aust. Eucalyptus. ..Not great for compost… but they sure do smell nice!
Lee says
Ah, I wondered it was for compost, as I’ve sen so many different kinds of people collecting them. Cheers Willy!
