entry description
Rainbow terraces descend a slope in Yuanyang, Yunnan. Unique personalities of color and pattern form from algae and soil composition. Yet, a single mountain stream sews this tapestry of earthwork together—flowing from holes in embankments, pool to pool. I had been following that stream which brought me deeper and deeper into the fields. It was mid-December 2020, I sent up my drone to photograph the fantastic array of colorful stripes formed by each layer of the terraces and captured a woman in pink walking along the embankment between two pools.back to gallery
