High Sierra
c.1963

A black and white photograph capturing a serene lake with a mirror-like reflection. Large rocks are scattered across the foreground, partially submerged, with their reflections creating a symmetrical effect. A dense forest lines the far shore, its trees also reflected in the still water, creating a tranquil and almost surreal landscape.
