About the Image(s)

Here is ”On the Last Shore”. There was a rumor that in association of a film festival, the organizers had placed a piano on a cliff by the sea for anybody to play. We went to check, and there it stood. A young man was playing, a young woman was squatting on the cliff listening, and an empty easy chair completed the surreal scene. The lonely silhouettes against the sky and the sparkling sea made me think of a song with the same title.
Fuji X-T4, 39.7 mm, f/10, 1/1000 s, ISO 160. I cropped a bit off the left edge, and turned the image into B&W in Capture One. I finished it in NIK Silver Efex trying to match my apocalyptic mood. Why do you think?

A nice capture and processing the "surreal" scene. In my view a very artistic rendering.   Posted: 10/03/2026 18:03:47

Thank you, Steve! This was, I think, one of those once-in-a-lifetime moments, and I really wanted to convey the feeling.   Posted: 10/04/2026 18:26:10
