Hello steemians !
The beach has always been a space of quiet contemplation for me, where the rhythm of the waves mirrors the pulse of time. Yesterday, as I walked along the shore, I noticed a flock of birds lifting into the sky, carried by the ocean breeze. One, in particular, caught my eye—a lone silhouette soaring against the blinding sun.
Instinctively, I raised my phone, drawn by the contrast of light and shadow. The backlighting transformed the scene into something almost surreal. The bird, once just a fleeting moment in the landscape, became a symbol of solitude, freedom, and mystery. Above it, the sun haloed the sky, an ethereal ring framing its flight.
This black-and-white treatment amplifies the mood, stripping away distractions and letting the raw elements speak: the stark brightness, the delicate wisps of clouds, the silent grace of the bird in motion. It is a moment suspended between light and darkness, reality and dream—a reminder that even in the vastness of the sky, every journey is its own story.
Have a nice day !
