Late Autumn in Southern Anhui

Walking into the redwood forest, the tall and straight redwood trees stand in neat rows, like solemn guardians. Their trunks are thick and textured, revealing the marks of time and the resilience of life. Sunlight filters through the gaps in the leaves, creating patches of light and shadow, giving a dreamlike feeling. The leaves of the redwood trees are long and dense, like delicate feathers. When the breeze blows, the leaves rustle, as if whispering the stories of autumn. Occasionally, a few leaves flutter down like butterflies, gently landing on the ground, laying a reddish-brown carpet over the earth. At the edge of the redwood forest, there is usually a clear lake or a babbling stream. The lake reflects the beautiful scenery of the redwood forest, with the reflection and the real forest complementing each other, creating a sense of being in a fairyland. The stream meanders through the forest, with crystal-clear water carrying the coolness of autumn, adding a touch of liveliness to the redwood forest.
