Captured mid-flight against the warm Caribbean sky, this photograph shows a pelican gliding effortlessly over the turquoise waters of St. Maarten. Its wings stretch wide, catching the light with each graceful movement. The backdrop of soft waves and golden hues brings a calm, tropical energy that speaks of freedom, balance, and natural elegance.
This image was taken during a quiet afternoon walk along the island’s coast. The pelican moved with such steady confidence, its silhouette cutting through the air like poetry. It felt like a living metaphor—staying grounded while soaring above it all.
