Autumn was deepening, but some leaves were still clinging to the branches

Autumn is coming to Shinjuku Gyoen Garden. Walking around the garden, which used to be the former residence of the Naito family, lords of the Takato domain, I could feel the scent of autumn beginning to fill the air. It was a bit too cold to relax outdoors. That's why there was no one sitting on the bench beside the path. The trees and leaves seemed to have taken the lead instead of people, and the branches and leaves that were growing beside the benches were wandering around as if they belonged to them.

However, the time for the leaves to leave the branches is fast approaching. Most of the leaves had fallen off, but the leaves that were not willing to give up were still clinging to the branches. I quietly clicked the shutter of my camera to encourage these resigned leaves.
