A lone tall figure is standing on an island surrounded by gentle waves. The figure is connected to the island almost as if it is growing from ground, perhaps like a tree or a naturally formed sculpture that has eroded from the rock by the waves over a millennia. The sun lingers massive behind the figure with just a few clouds here and there covering it partially. The sun-rays seem to be coming through the figure almost as if they have burned a hole through it and are now spreading out towards the viewer. The image is black and white but it is very easy to imagine the colors starting to fade in and filling all the areas with vivid colors. It is just as easy to see the waves come alive and the clouds starting to move slowly across the sky, as the sun begins to disappear slowly into the horizon, making way for moon and the stars that are waiting out of view to cast their light on the figure.
