TITLE: Rider in the snowstorm

When I was taking landscape photos for a project, I discovered a rider who, like me, was still out riding despite the icy weather. I had noticed the road with the trees before, but it seemed unsuitable for my project. But when I saw this rider, I thought the atmosphere was perfect. The situation had something timeless and reminded me of a medieval scene or a fantasy novel. So I waited until the rider reached the trees and then took some photos. I even had enough time to reach the road and inquire whether the woman felt disturbed from the photo. She thanked me for asking and denied the question.
