21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Artistic
Ephemeral Abstract River Reflections

This image captures the enchanting play of light and color as it dances upon the serene river reflections of autumn trees in the Great Smoky Mountains. Each piece in this collection is a testament to the fleeting moments of fall, where the world is bathed in the warm hues of red, orange, and gold. The reflection of the trees in the calm waters of the river creates a mesmerizing, ever-changing tapestry of shapes and colors. "Ephemeral" invites you to step into these moments and experience the magic of autumn in its purest form.
