22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Nature’s drawing

This photo was taken in Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. It is part of a project I have been working on, in which I photograph plants, specifically at night, in search of unusual images. This photo shows a dead Nira plant over another one that is completely alive. It looks like a drawing created by light on nature.
