"Aqua Vitae"

A meditative capture from Indonesia's blue hour, transcending a simple scene of a moored boat. The turquoise vessel, weathered yet steadfast, is a lifeline—the Aqua Vitae—for the stilt-house dwelling it serves. Through the alchemy of long exposure, water transforms into a silken, dreamlike plain, muting the world into a profound stillness. It becomes a central artery in a quiet landscape, a vibrant vein of color speaking of isolation, resilience, and the vital connections that sustain us.
