21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Artistic
Mother and Child Against Bali's Fiery Sunset

This photo captures a mother and child on a Balinese beach, set against a vibrant, golden sunset that radiates calmness. In post-production, I enhanced the horizontal lines to infuse the picture with a sense of fluid motion, symbolising both the transient nature of time and yet, a timeless moment shared between the mother and her child.
