Using a long shutter speed, the scene under the Storebælts Bridge turns into a study of calm and movement. The sea, normally lively and rhythmic, is smoothed into a silky smooth plain. Clouds slide across the sky like sweeps, stretched by time itself.
The bridge rises like a fixture from this silent backdrop. Pillars and cables remain unmoved, like anchors in a landscape that is constantly flowing. The contrast between human ingenuity and the gentle whisper of nature makes this place almost meditative.
Here, between water and air, time itself seems to stand still for a moment - while still invisibly moving forward.
