Pretty much the only green recorded in my chart is from the evergreen trees in my yard.  Here is my grid including my pictures of north, south, east and west, along with the grid I used to measure the percentage of green in them.  As you can see, most of the green has left. Once the leaves changed color, my percentage of gre...
