18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
"Primordial"

Thunderstorms the previous day and lingering humidity in this lakeside woodland led to the following morning of heavy mist, which create the perfect conditions for woodland images. This scene caught my eye as a result of the greens reflecting through the scene, and the noticeable green lichens on the foreground tree.
