Ночной гость

A solitary brown bear steps from the dense forest onto the grassy edge of a tranquil lake, its form perfectly mirrored in the glassy surface below. The scene, captured at twilight, blends the quiet strength of the animal with the serene stillness of its surroundings. Tall birch trees stand sentinel in the background, their silhouettes reflected in the dark water. The image, by Dmitriy Arhipov, evokes a sense of peaceful coexistence between wildlife and nature, frozen in a moment of quiet majesty. The bear’s calm gaze suggests awareness, not aggression, adding depth to this nocturnal encounter.
