Leaves aglow

The red tips of this plant, reaching for the morning sun, caught my eye.

I love the red glow from the beam of light 🙂

I am thankful that the red glow is simply the sun’s illumination and not a glow of fire such as both Colorado and Arkansas are currently suffering!

Greenbrier Glow

When hiking through the woods, certain things grab your attention and won’t let go. Greenbrier will reach out and physically snag the unwary hiker! This time, it was the glowing leaf that caught me and I avoided the thorns and trip lines :o)

Greenbrier has more than one way to catch you!
