The hard sound of leaves falling

This morning the wind was still in the forest. I heard a sound like a bunch of people walking, but there was nobody else besides me in the forest. Then I realized that the sound was made by frozen leaves falling to the ground. It was a surprisinly loud sound, like twigs breaking under the foot.

During the night, the temperature dropped below -5 °C, and we had frost on the plants. But it soon melted away when the sun started to shine.

Here are three photographs from this morning. I may post more, as it was such a nice time for taking photographs.
