Sycamore leaves (Acer pseudoplatanus)
Sycamore leaves (Acer pseudoplatanus). The leaves are an orange-red colour due to the predominance of yellow and red carotenoids that protect the developing chlorophyll from the sun. Carotenoids are organic pigments that are found in the chromoplasts of plants. Photographed in spring
