Shot on a Nikon Zfc paired with the NIKKOR Z DX 16–50mm f/3.5–6.3 VR, this image captures a surreal moment of stillness and light.

The camera was placed on a bench to the right of the scene, stabilized for a long exposure (37mm, f/5.6, 4 sec, ISO 100). I stood directly in front of my Golden Retriever to hold his attention, triggering the shutter remotely using the Nikon mobile app.
