The Water Dance of Leaves

Autumn. The elm trees reaching the water’s edge shed their leaves into the sea. There, the leaves join the water in an endless dance, sometimes gentle and serene, other times more vibrant and intense.

The Water Dance of Leaves captures this moment through the interplay of light on the sea, its reflections and refractions, revealing another world—one that belongs to both water and land.
