A serene, symmetrical view of a narrow canal cutting through a dense woodland during the "golden hour." A perfect reflection on the water's surface creates a Rorschach-like symmetry between the sky and the earth. Towering, slender trees line both banks. Most are deciduous and bare. Their bark is textured and highlighted by the warm, low-angle sunlight. Along the water’s edge, there are dense thickets of dormant, brown shrubs and ferns.
