Byron Tan, Veil of Morning (PLACES 2026)

At first light, fog drapes the rolling hills and vineyards, softening every contour into layered tones of grey. A solitary farmhouse rises through the mist, its presence quiet but enduring, as long shadows stretch across the land. The scene captures a fleeting moment when landscape, light, and weather align to reveal the countryside in its most ethereal and honest form.
