A winding road draws the eye through tall gray trunks and a canopy of golden autumn foliage. Its smooth, dark surface contrasts with the intricate branches and leaf-covered slopes, bringing a measured line to the woodland’s abundant detail.
The story
I framed the road where its curve began to disappear among the trees. Gold leaves caught the light above it, while the fallen ones covered nearly every surface beyond the pavement. My eye kept following the double yellow line, then wandering back to the branches overhead. I wanted to hold both movements in the photograph: the invitation to keep going and the quiet pleasure of staying exactly where I was.
