Roots
My partner knows I have a hard time passing up a nice set of roots, and a moss and rock combination even more so. This is a feature along the Fragrance Lake Trail in the Chuckanut Mountains. I knew it was coming up and I began extending the legs on the tripod as we approached the location. The subject is difficult to handle if the light is contrasty but today's light was soft and even.

The inlet stream that feeds Snow Lake was frozen over. But the lake was lapping at the ice at the mouth of the stream causing this smooth, scalloped formation.
