While traveling the backroads of northern Vermont, I came across this group of vines and grasses at the edge of a dirt road.

I was struck with the interweaving of the vines and grasses and the medley of green and red colors. In order to photograph these plants, I had to stand on my tiptoes on my tallest camera case.

This image is a reminder to me of the variety, harmony, and complexity of the natural world and the interconnectedness of all life.
