3. In Silence — Vadim Mezzo in Rostov-on-Don, Russia

Two herons stand close against a soft pink sunset. The calm tones emphasize serenity and stillness in companionship.

Vadim Mezzo : Sometimes we need silence to feel the love. Being in nature away from the rhythm and noises of the city is much easier to feel connection with this world. In this work I tried to reflect that very moment of serenity, when two people can fully sense these thin threads that connect them with each other and the world around them. And I guess, a piece of pacifying in a big city will never be the waste.
