Duncan Rawlinson photographed this small island in the 1000 Islands region of Ontario, Canada, on a misty autumn morning. A single deciduous tree displays warm orange and yellow foliage against the cool green backdrop of evergreens, while dense fog drifts across the water and obscures the surrounding forest. The mist isolates the island from its surroundings. The composition balances the warm tones of fall against the muted grays and greens of the fog-covered shoreline. This photograph captures the seasonal transition and the atmospheric conditions that define autumn mornings along the St. Lawrence River.
