Swan floating on calm waters, South Australia
'When you just need some alone time.'
The swan drifted effortlessly across the water’s surface as if it had no care for the world beyond the waves. Its silhouette was stark against the fading light, a quiet emblem of solitude in an endless expanse of blue. I stood there watching it for what felt like an eternity, as if its stillness was somehow contagious. The horizon stretched out in a haze of gold and gray, where the sky and sea met in a seamless blur. A gentle breeze rolled over the water, carrying with it a faint salty tang that settled on my skin. It was a moment both fleeting and eternal—simple yet profound. The kind of moment that makes you question whether you’re watching life unfold or simply being watched by it.
