"While the grandeur of nature is often portrayed in bold vistas, it can also be conveyed in a more intimate presentation. Brecksville Ridge draws us into the scene with intriguing texture and fleeting light and shadow. Rather than experiencing this scene from afar, we are immersed in it. We are transported from impartial observation to being present in the moment."
-JOHN SALMINEN, JUROR
