Elevated view towards a woman posing on a spit of land jutting into a lake, seen through birch trees in the spring. Caption reads: "Spring comes suddenly to Wisconsin and brings a wondrous world of sunny skies, fresh green fields and budding trees. There's a mighty vigor in the air that sets blood racing, footsteps moving faster."
