Decrepit wooden dock at Jones Falls Bay, Rideau Canal, Ontario.
From The Straight Way Lost, a long-form photographic sequence exploring psychological landscape, disorientation, and transition along the Rideau Canal corridor in Eastern Ontario. The weathered dock projects into still winter water beneath a subdued shoreline, functioning as a quiet threshold between land and reflection. Positioned late in the sequence, the image adopts a calmer and more contemplative visual language, suggesting pause, distance, and the possibility of provisional resolution after the instability of earlier sections.
