Creek's murky water meets dry terrain with tree root contrasts.
A high-angle view of a small creek with murky gray shallow water. Along the top of the creek are thick, dried tree roots juxtaposed in a row against dried, light brown soil, with a strip of light green grass at the top of the frame. The bottom tips of the roots are submerged in the creek, creating a darker hue, indicating the moisture climbing up from the water. Along the top right, there are several holes in the soil, creating a dark shadow. At the bottom part of the frame is a cluster of dried sticks and roots, with some patches of green plants and grass.
