I love the red, orange and yellow colours of the autumn leaves. Today, the first day of winter, I was pruning a tree in our back yard with two of my children, and when I saw these back-lit leaves on our Chinese Tallowtree, I had to stop and grab my camera.

Wow - it mustn't be often that you get conditions and colours like that in W.A. What kind of tree is this?

@Richard: I'm not sure what type of tree this is.
We get autumn colours like this every year - but the deciduous trees in Australia are not native.
