I tried to share this picture earlier but I think I lost it to fafo, so I'm trying again (with a short story this time!)

My camera lens was dirty from climbing around a mountain side all day like a wild goat, looking for crystals. On the way out, these railroad tracks shining in the rain struck me. The shining path to somewhere. The smudginess made the image even more beautiful to me. It definitely captured how I felt in that moment 😅
