"Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening"

Captions available

The idea

A traveller stops to watch a neighbour's woods fill with snow, notes that his horse must think it queer, and turns back because he has promises to keep and miles to go before he sleeps.

In practice

Lovely, dark and deep, and then the road.

Where people slip
