During the summer, living so close to the sea, I make it a habit to walk for two hours at the end of the day, one hour north, one hour south, guided by the sunset that arrives around 9 p.m.
Along the way, photographs appear without being sought, they simply happen.
The sea daffodils, which inhabit the dunes, become even more beautiful as the light fades.
In this image, the flower was holding the last rays of dusk, glowing softly among the surrounding grasses, as if trying to cling to the light by instinct, refusing to fall asleep too soon.
