18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Red Bud Isle, Austin

This photo captures a small group of cypress trees in early fall along the banks of Lake Austin in Austin Texas just minutes from downtown. This is my favorite photography spot in Austin as it easily makes you forget you're in the middle of a big city - while the beauty and serenity of the surroundings is striking. I come to take photos at this spot several times every year, and every time I do, it's a different photo.
