22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
A children shoe lost in the forest
This photograph captures a moss-covered boot lying on the forest floor, partially buried in fallen leaves and surrounded by branches. The boot, weathered and abandoned, has become a natural part of the forest, with green moss sprouting across its surface, blending it seamlessly with the earth and foliage around it. The lighting is soft and slightly diffused, giving the scene a dreamlike, nostalgic feel as if nature is slowly reclaiming this forgotten object. The warm tones of the leaves and the soft texture of the moss evoke a sense of tranquility and passage of time in a hidden woodland.
