Wheel of Frozen

In the hush of a frozen morning, a single tree rises from a small island, its intricate branches etched against a gray sky and mirrored in the calm, translucent water. Snow clings lightly to its limbs and the surrounding reeds, while the lake’s surface reveals submerged stones beneath a veil of mist. The scene captures a moment of profound stillness, where nature holds its breath. Photographer Jaeyoun Ryu frames this quiet beauty with poetic precision, inviting contemplation of isolation and serenity.
