Captured by James Engel on September 26, 2022, this tranquil scene invites us to pause and appreciate the serene beauty of the natural world. Using the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra with a focal length of 6.7mm, an aperture of ƒ/1.8, and a shutter speed of 1/3000 sec, James has beautifully rendered the still waters of Corpus Christi, Texas, where a solitary pier emerges as a quiet sentinel in the composition. The high ISO of 50 and the deft use of the camera’s settings reveal a landscape of tranquil elegance, where the mirror-like surface of the water perfectly reflects the calm surroundings. This photograph, capturing a moment of stillness, encourages us to find peace in the simple, often overlooked details of nature. In the gentle interplay of light and shadow, and the peaceful solitude of the pier, we discover a poignant reminder of the beauty found in quiet contemplation and the natural landscapes that surround us. |
