Perched dramatically on a rugged cliff, a gnarled tree stands as a silent witness to the cosmos. Above, the Milky Way stretches across a deep indigo sky, its countless stars shimmering with celestial brilliance. Below, the ocean’s surface glows with a soft, ethereal light, hinting at distant horizons. This breathtaking scene, captured by Darya Vasileva, blends the raw beauty of nature with the infinite wonder of the universe. The image evokes solitude, resilience, and awe—reminding us of our small yet profound place in the grand tapestry of the night.
