I really appreciate the help. The more I work with this photograph, the more I feel draw into it, as if I was looking down a spiral staircase. This makes me lean towards the name "Descent". (ding ding ding, we have a winnah!). Although this morning, the name "<a href='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coriolis_effect' rel="nofollow">Coriolis</a>" popped into my head, after the effect that the motion of the planet has on the direction of cylones. I do love those oblique sounding names! Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I really appreciate the help.

I looked for a word in your description of the photo - figuring that you probably already named it yourself and didn't realize it. The word that jumped out to me was "cascade" I love this photograph – really nice daniel.

After reading that response the word that came to mind was "Cycle". Having to do with the continual repeating phases of the year, yet it still sounds circular. Perhaps it needs another word with it. Lovely piece, by the way. A Captivating Cycle. I like the idea of the piece haveing to do with Autumn. After reading that response the word that came to mind was “Cycle”.
