Frozen Light
In the stillness of a northern winter, a river carves a dark, sinuous path through a luminous forest. Snow-laden conifers and frost-kissed birches shimmer in the sunlight, their branches etched in crystalline white. The gentle bend of the Assomption River contrasts with the intricate geometry of the trees, creating a dialogue between motion and stillness, softness and structure.
Framed by evergreen boughs catching the morning glow, this image captures not only a moment of pristine beauty, but also the quiet power of winter—its silence, its clarity, its grace.
