    A woman stands by the shore, her pale dress catching the sea breeze. The light plays across her face—soft yet restless, like the water behind her. There’s something unspoken in her gaze, a quiet tension between stillness and motion. The moment feels fleeting, already slipping away.

    A woman sits alone at the table, sunlight pooling around her untouched coffee. The bread lies half-sliced, the knife abandoned mid-task. Something in her stillness suggests this morning is different—not routine, but a pause heavy with unspoken weight. The room holds its breath.

    A woman in a white dress stands by the sea, sunlight catching the folds of her skirt. Her gaze drifts beyond the frame, as if lost in thought or waiting for something—or someone—just out of sight. The air feels still, salt-tanged, heavy with unspoken words.

    Golden light spills across the shore as a woman stands barefoot in the sand, her white dress catching the breeze. The sea melts into twilight behind her, all soft blues and fading warmth. There’s a quiet here—the hush of waves, the cool touch of evening air on sun-warmed skin.
