A tranquil scene: several tall trees, mostly trunks, soar upward, with a still lake behind them reflecting the shorter, more dense grove on the opposite shore. One becomes aware of a man's figure walking near the trees, and a woman's figure relaxed at the base of a tree. (Virginia K. Anderson 02/06/95)
