The red, yellow, and green hues of this image create a sense of harmony that balances well with the perfect plume of smoke billowing out from behind the train. It achieves a wonderful balance of geometric and curvilinear lines.

The color palette, leading lines, and photographer’s point of view draws you in, making you feel as though you’ve been placed on top of the mountain.

The combination of cows on a farm with mountains in the distances evokes a certain sense of nostalgia and paints a beautiful picture of New England. Special thanks to our photo judge, Michele Diana Hirsch!
