A large house atop a hill. Someone has made a temporary "service road" up to the house with a uniform layer of straw laid down in two swooping parallel lines. (It almost looks like a basket weave.)

The concrete pier has collapsed in one spot; the slab is lying at an angle and the orange striped safety barricade has fallen on its side into the hole. A good metaphor for 2025?

Low key black and white image showing catkins on the twigs of a hazel tree. The catkins at the top are in focus, the rest are increasingly out of focus. Even more out of focus twigs are visible in the dark background.
