img6, originally known as hazel_leaves_WA.jpg, is a wallpaper included in Windows 7 as part of the Nature theme, licensed from Will Austin's PhotoShelter. It was taken by Will Austin, who took several wallpapers that were used in 7. It is a close-up shot of hazel leaves on a dark red background in the Washington Park Arboretum in Seattle.

Will Austin reports that on that morning, the leaves were illuminated by a "proverbial 'shaft of light'" for a short time, and that although he visited the spot back many times, "the fall color has never again been that beautiful". The picture has been barely edited if it was at all.[1]
