Stillwater resident Maribeth Lundeen says she frequently goes on meditative walks on the trails near the Arcola High Bridge. “The woods are beautiful with a diverse mix of trees,” she says, noting that the forest is different in every season. This photo, Under the Bridge, came in first place in the Wildlife & Nature category of the Lens on St. Croix Valley photo contest. “What struck me about this image was how I used the trees to help frame the bridge,” Lundeen says. “I also edited this photo in black and white, as it helped bring more focus to the bridge and its reflection.”
