17th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Watercolors

Autumn leaves floating in a pool of reflected autumn colors. This is in a Chicago Park area on the Chicago River, better known for its urban incarnation. I'm fascinated by the patches of nature that dot our urban landscape. With these images, I hope to inspire people to visit and protect these special places.
