There's almost something about this photo that directly contradicts my vision of this contest - the stark architectural symmetry versus a more fluid organic image. I find it especially pleasing that the sun is not perfectly lined up with the trough... illustrating that nature is not bound by the rigid design. Over to you, Walter.
