彼岸-The Other Shore

賴赫琰

Mobile Photography - Night

Silver Award

To me, "The Other Shore" represents my ultimate Utopia.

The time spent behind bars was once an endless night—cold, oppressive, and heavy enough to swallow all hope. Only after stepping back into the world and carrying the weight of my past did I truly find my visual calling and define my purpose in life.

The icy, turbulent currents in the foreground reflect the pain and heavy struggles of starting anew, while the distant, golden-lit waterfall represents the burning ideal I now relentlessly pursue. This photograph captures my personal passage from absolute darkness toward the light. Though the waters remain harsh and the path heavy, my vision is finally clear. I know the other shore is not far away, and I will inevitably reach it.
