Seasons of a Street
"When I used to go to my office in the morning, just before reaching my destination, I would switch from the main roads to residential streets for about 2.5 km. Although these streets had a speed limit of 40 km/h compared to 60 km/h on the main roads, the travel time remained nearly the same due to the absence of traffic."
"For almost ten years, I took the same route and witnessed how the streets transformed from one season to another. After a light snowfall on the night of February 27th, 2013, the streets were covered in slushy snow, yet the trees looked stunning, compelling me to pause for a moment and capture their beauty with my phone camera. (Buying a smartphone a few months earlier turned out to be a smart decision!)"
A commuter switched from main roads to residential streets for about 2.5 km near the office. The residential streets had a 40 km/h speed limit versus 60 km/h on main roads, but travel time remained nearly the same because of absent traffic. Slower driving enabled appreciation of houses' front lawns. The same route was taken for almost ten years, revealing seasonal transformations. After a light snowfall on February 27, 2013, streets became slushy while trees looked stunning, prompting photographic stops with a recently purchased smartphone. Photos were taken regularly as winter shifted toward spring; by March 6, 2013 the snow remained piled but trees hinted that winter would end.
