Caption

A world on standby can be a wonderful thing. Nature feels natural again. The streets are quiet and the forest is loud; birds chirping while the wind rustles the leaves. This photograph was taken on one of my 70 walks through the local forest in 2020. The red and white caution tape can be interpreted as one of the many barricades we faced in a tough year.

While the internet is full of opinions, discussions, information, and misinformation - many viewers would jump to the conclusion that we went so far as to close off the wilderness. It would be an obnoxious assumption, but in this day and age it could easily pass as true. (In reality, this is just a section of a new bike trail being built.)

Photographed in Zurich, Switzerland, 2020
