As the sun dips below the horizon casting a rich palette of blues, figures gracefully move across the frame, their every step a dance with the dwindling daylight. The backdrop of a modern era, the wooden vessel stands as a silent witness, combined with the presence of an airport and planes soaring through the sky, echoing the relentless march of contemporary time. In this photograph I intended to use the warmth of the wooden vessel, the daylight of the beautiful sunset and the silhouette of the figures to evoke a timeless narrative of stories. Although the daylight ends, people continue to warm the foreground with a sense of anonymity from their darken silhouette.
My intention was not to narrate a singular story but rather to encapsulate a multitude of narratives. The focus was on evoking a distinct feeling, providing a fleeting glimpse into the lives of the individuals captured in the frame. The sunset serves as a powerful symbol of the passage of time, casting its warm glow over the timeless wooden ship and darken subjects.
