A man sits cross-legged on a rocky cliff, meditating with eyes closed and hands resting on his knees. He wears a turquoise T-shirt, gray pants, and sneakers. Behind him stretches a sweeping view of a winding river bordered by lush green hills, under a bright blue sky dotted with fluffy white clouds. The sunlight reflects off the water, and a boat can be seen traveling along the river. The scene conveys a sense of peace, balance, and connection with nature. Photo by Tony Bordonaro
