*** About Autumn Foliage: Autumn foliage refers to leaves of deciduous trees which change color before shedding during the fall season. This natural phenomenon is largely due to the reduction in daylight and changes in temperature, causing the leaves to stop producing chlorophyll, the green pigment responsible for photosynthesis. The resulting colors, ranging from vivid yellows to deep reds, create spectacular landscapes that attract visitors and photographers alike. Various tree species such as maples, oaks, and birches exhibit unique shades and timing of color change, adding to the complexity and beauty of autumn scenery. This ecological occurrence not only decorates environments but also signals ecological shifts within the ecosystem preparing for winter.
