About

This landscape photograph by Sam Kweskin captures a surreal scene of a paved road partially submerged in a wide body of water. A line of wooden utility poles follows the edge of the receding path, stretching far into the distance toward hazy mountains on the horizon. In the background, a small group of figures stands near the end of the accessible road where the water takes over. Road closed signs flank the approach near a green street sign reading 10th Ave and a blank white stop sign in the foreground. The lighting is diffused under an overcast sky, casting a cool tone across the water and surrounding earth.
