I was out and about looking for photo opportunities of trees changing color in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley when I came upon this scene.
The morning sun highlighted both the orange leaves of the sugar maple and a huge pile of rubble from duplex apartments being demolished because of faulty foundations.
The contrast between nature’s beauty and human destruction, even though it was needed, perfectly defined juxtaposition.
