The Last Leaves

I was up at Memory Grove the other day. The snow was here to stay. Almost all the leaves had vanished from the trees, leaving bare limbs. However, I saw these two leaves, hanging on, fighting the harsh cold winter, to stay just a bit longer. They seemed so lonely, and so strong. It may sound sentimental...and it is...but I just had to take a picture of them. If for no other reason than they held on when all the rest had fallen! :)
