Light and shade on groups of trees.

In the composition of leafy trees be careful not to repeat too often the same colour of one tree against the same colour of another [behind it]; but vary it with a lighter, or a darker, or a stronger green.

Taken from The Notebooks of Leonardo da Vinci edited by Jean Paul Richter, 1880.
