18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
A Potomac River Reflection

I live directly across from the C&O Canal (150 feet) at MM 85.2. About 5 minutes from Big Slack Water Boat Ramp. Throughout the day and the seasons, there are multitudes of different colors and shades reflected against the natural landscape. In this image, I added my artistic narrative utilizing an oil paint effect for the trees reflected in the water.
