A grove of pond cypress trees with autumn foliage, Georgia, USA Oct 27, 2026

Reflected in calm water and glowing in the light of the setting sun, this grove of pond cypress creates a striking display of colour and symmetry. Native to the south-eastern United States, the species is associated with shallow ponds, depressions and wetland habitats. This image was captured in Georgia, where these trees can be found in places such as the Okefenokee Swamp and other low-lying wetlands.
