Elevated view of a large green-capped crag above a lake, bridge towers on the left, flowering shrubs in front
Close view of a grey jet fighter cockpit and nose with the number 23125, yellow flowers in the corner
Up close the jet shows its wear. Paint is scuffed along the nose, the canopy glass has gone slightly cloudy, and the number 23125 is stencilled in black beneath the cockpit. A branch of yellow flowers pushes in from the corner as if trying to claim it. The sky behind is white and blank, a pale screen awaiting a signal.
Two dark, tree-covered cliff faces forming a V-shaped gap against an overcast sky
Look straight up between the two cliffs and the sky becomes a pale wedge. Trees cling along both edges, dark against the white. One lonely tree stands on the far rim, almost in silhouette. The rock in shadow takes on a cool grey. It is the kind of view that makes a neck ache and makes the ground feel quieter.
Arched suspension bridge with a red and white tower crossing a lake toward a limestone cliff, people on the bridge
The suspension bridge arches over the water toward the cliff, its red and white tower standing at the near end like a gate. Cables slope down in long lines. A crowd waits at the foot of the bridge, some under umbrellas. The rock face behind is enormous and bright, making the whole structure look like a model someone set down carefully.
Lake with tall reeds in the foreground, a pointed rock spire and cliffs reflected in the water
Step back and tall reeds slide into the foreground, blurring the bottom edge. The spire still holds the centre, with cliffs to the left and right, and the reflection now stretches toward the reeds as a long pale smear. On the far shore people move around a picnic spot. Somewhere a pedal boat creaks, its bell rung once by restless hands.
Monkey sitting on a concrete ledge beside a wooden railing, looking out over green water
A monkey has claimed the outside edge of the railing, crouched on the narrow concrete ledge with the green water just below. It is looking away, toward something only it can see across the lake. Its tail hangs loose. The wooden handrail cuts down the frame in a long diagonal, and the reflections in the water barely move.
Brown wading bird perched on a pale rock in a calm green lake, trees and limestone cliff behind
Wider now, the bird sits on its rock in the middle of a green lake, the cliff stretching across the top of the frame with trees bunched at its foot. Small ripples spread around the stones. The bird has turned its head slightly, aware of something nearby. It is a patient sort of standoff, the bird winning by doing absolutely nothing.
Green lake beneath tree-covered cliffs, a pale rock in the water and a small yellow pedal boat
Back by the water, the lake spreads wide under the cliffs. A pale rock breaks the surface on the right, smooth as a loaf of bread. A small pedal boat with a yellow canopy idles near the far bank. The trees grow so thick along the shore that the cliffs only show at the very top, bleached and broken.
