• Autumn trees reflected in a calm lake

The shore holds a narrow strip of land.

The darkest trees sit close to the shore.

Small shoreline details interrupt the broad reflection and give the near edge a natural contour.

Reflections repeat the tree colors in softened shapes across the water. The bank is uneven, with shrubs and small trunks along the edge, and the distant hills remain visible beneath a pale open sky.
