Sentry
Sentry
In View
A lone bird perches in a bare tree, silhouetted against a sky that burns with texture and colour. It holds its position with quiet strength, unmoving yet alert, as though it has been waiting for something unseen.
In Reflection
Sentry explores the emotional weight of vigilance. Many of us know the posture of being on guard, shaped by experiences that demanded survival through constant awareness. Yet when the danger has passed, the habit remains. Living in defence becomes exhausting, and the watchtower turns into a cage. This image reflects that state and offers a gentle reminder that there comes a time to lower our guard, soften our gaze, and allow ourselves to rest.
In My Life
I have carried the habit of scanning for threats long after they were gone. Seeing this bird against the sky felt like a mirror of that mental posture. Over time, I have learned that rest is not weakness but courage, and that safety is something I cultivate within. This piece continues to remind me that healing begins when I allow myself to feel safe enough to rest and safe enough to grow.
