Captured at the break of dawn on January 1, 2025, this image portrays the first sunrise of a new era. The fishing boat advancing toward the massive sun, accompanied by birds soaring in unison, symbolizes hope and the vibrant energy of a fresh start. My goal was to convey the overwhelming sense of joy and the profound "grand jubilee" felt at that moment on the crimson sea.

I run a small business, and I pursue photography as a personal practice.
Through the eyes of my camera, I aim to capture the changes of nature and the rhythms of everyday life in my own way.
