Last Sunday afternoon, I decided to go to Krung Mane Sea. Honestly, my intention was simple: to enjoy the afternoon atmosphere and of course to photograph the beauty presented there. This sea always has its own charm, especially at dusk.
When I arrived there, the sky was a bit cloudy,
but that was what made the atmosphere feel more dramatic. I walked towards the large rocks arranged lengthwise towards the sea, which also functioned as a harbor where ships returned from fishing. From there, the view of the sea felt so vast, as if welcoming anyone who came.
I started photographing cloudy skies, taking advantage of the dim light which instead gave a mysterious feel to my photos.
Then, my attention was drawn to several boats that had just returned from the sea. The boats were moving slowly, carrying the day's catch. I didn't want to miss the moment, so I immediately took several photos of the boats, complete with the background of the cloudy sky and the slightly wavy sea.
Not only that, I also had time to take a picture of my friend who accompanied me. We joked around while occasionally enjoying the cool sea breeze. He stood on the edge of the rock, looking very relaxed with the sea and boats moving slowly in the background. This photo is my favorite, because it captures a simple but memorable moment of togetherness.
Although the afternoon was a bit cloudy, the beauty of Krung Mane Sea was undeniable. There was a serenity that was hard to explain, like a warm embrace from nature that always welcomed me. I am grateful to have been able to capture these moments, and I definitely want to come back again someday.
