Photograph taken in Highlands Hammock State Park along the Cypress Swamp Trail in 2011. Captured with the Pentax K-x, this image invites the viewer into the quiet stillness of one of Florida’s oldest protected landscapes. The winding boardwalk leads through towering bald cypress rising from dark, reflective waters, where vibrant foliage and mirrored light create a layered composition that blurs the boundary between forest and reflection. The photograph celebrates the timeless beauty and fragile ecology of Florida’s cypress swamps, offering a contemplative glimpse into an environment shaped by water, light, and the slow passage of time.
