Photographer: Rich Graber, Bothell
Photo taken: Jan. 11, bottom of Seattle Hill Road, Snohomish
Photographer's description: "My twin daughters, Sydney and Lexi, looking at the flooding."
Expert says: "After observing the destruction caused by local flooding, it is with welcome relief we see a moment of wonder connected to this natural disaster. These two little girls staring into the fog at the end of the road sum up the awe and mystery that occurs when nature meets civilization. The yellow lane lines lead us straight to this sweet moment and hold our gaze so we may join them in contemplation."
