A parapenter floats high in the sky, carried by a green wing that contrasts brightly with the dramatic clouds. Above it, a clear blue sky opens up, making the contrast even stronger. No piece of land is visible. It seems as if it has become detached from the world, as if it is floating in a vacuum, with no beginning and no end.
For me, this image is about freedom. About daring to go forward, towards the horizon, without knowing exactly where you will end up. It is the feeling of letting go - away from the heaviness of everyday life, away from everything that binds or holds on. Just the air, the movement, the confidence of being carried.
What I see in this picture is a moment of space. A place where stillness and intensity come together. Like hanging outside time for a moment. The image reminds me that freedom is not only in grand gestures, but also in a single moment where you feel that there is nothing limiting you.
It is an invitation to seek that space yourself - in the air, in yourself, or wherever you dare to let go.
