This vertical, summer photo captures the ultimate holiday feeling in one image. In the centre we see a palm leaf, sharp in focus and illuminated by bright sunlight. The long, narrow leaves hang down gracefully and blow slightly, adding movement and life to the photo. The leaf's veins and fine tips are clearly visible, with brown tips here and there - signs of sun and drought.
In the background is an azure pool or water surface, shimmering in the sunlight. The colour is intense and exudes freshness and coolness. Behind it, we see a deep, dark sea or ocean, and at the top, a bright blue sky with a few soft, white clouds on the horizon. The low depth of field has blurred the background, visually bringing out the palm frond.
The composition is simple but effective. The leaves fill the upper and middle part of the image, while the colours of water and sky form horizontal layers that provide depth and tranquillity. The contrast between green and blue gives the image a tropical and harmonious character.
This picture breathes sunshine, relaxation and exotic stillness. The image is perfectly balanced and arouses the desire for distant travels and peaceful moments under a palm tree, overlooking the sea.
