From The Straight Way Lost, a long-form photographic sequence exploring psychological landscape, disorientation, and transition along the Rideau Canal corridor in Eastern Ontario. Positioned between Act I and Act II, this image uses the elevated geometry of the Smiths Falls Bascule Bridge as a symbolic threshold within the sequence, marking a movement from fragmentation and instability toward the slower, more contemplative visual language of the project’s middle section.
