Description: This black and white study captures downtown Austin's distinctive skyline reflected in the still waters of Palmer Pond. The composition juxtaposes the city's angular, modern architecture against the organic forms of shoreline vegetation, while the American flag stands as a sentinel among the towers. The monochromatic treatment emphasizes the geometric patterns of the buildings and their perfect mirror images, creating a symmetrical urban landscape that speaks to both Austin's growth as a major technological hub and its continued connection to natural spaces. The stillness of the water offers a moment of urban contemplation—a city momentarily at peace with its reflection.
