The snowy field, covered with ripples created by the strong northwest winds, is reminiscent of a desolate desert.
Beyond that lies a dazzling world.
The theme of this work is that beyond this desolate world lies a world full of light. It conveys the wish that people keep their eyes firmly fixed on what is ahead and move forward.
The photo was taken in the evening, just before the sun set. I carefully decided on the exposure time to bridge the exposure difference between the snowy field in the foreground and the sea of clouds in the background.
