17th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
woodlands

Walking on a cloudy winter day with a camera along the river, I came across a curious piece of forest with an interesting pattern of tree branches. When I looked at him, it was as if something was pulling my gaze inward, into the depths of the forest. At the same time, the snow-dusted trunks created a bizarre black-and-white rhythm, enhancing the unusual optical effect.
