Inktober Day 29: A Rhododendron leaf

An aging rhododendron leaf, about to be shed,  became the subject for Inktober's drawing today.  Drawing  fall leaves has been remarkably interesting, illuminating the various ways that leaves change color as they senesce, whether they're deciduous or evergreen, like this rhododendron.
