To get from the suburbs to the city center …

… I can either take this road …

… or follow the river …

… on its way …

… through the woods …

… and meadows.

I swerve …

… into the forest …

… to see the big trees …

… and the small details.

Though it feels remote …

… and wild …

… I am only a short walk …

… from comfort.

Another detour …

.. gives me a good view …

… on my destination.

Down the hill …

… I meet some locals …

… and return to the twilight …

… and patterns …

… of the deep forest, …

… when after four hours suddenly it ends.

The bus would have taken 15 minutes …

… but I choose divergent.
