For me, there is something about this stunning photograph that signifies tranquility. The female subject in the photograph appears relaxed and pensive, seduced by her serene surroundings. I sourced this photograph for a post I created in June, accompanied with the following quote: "... in the cathedral hush of a Quebec Indian summer with the lake drawing into its mirror the fire of the maples, it came to me that to be able to love the mystery surrounding us is the final and only sanction of human existence." The photograph combined with the quote are one of my most treasured posts.

This is a gorgeously wonderful photograph. I love the red bow on her back with all the other colors being more calm. She looks lonely, I would love to sit next to her and tell her everything is going to be okay.
