Sunset over a bay with streaked orange and grey clouds, dark hills, a curving shoreline and waves
Elevated view of white villas around a colourful splash park, palm trees and a turquoise sea behind
From higher up, the whole arrangement makes sense at last. White villas sit in a neat row beside the splash park, its umbrellas scattered like sweets on a tray. Palms crowd around the edges, and beyond them the sea turns a bright turquoise that looks almost edited. The sky is clean, with one thin streak of cloud. It is half past three and the water calls.

A grey pigeon perched on a thick textured tree branch, blurred green leaves and bright sky behind
A grey pigeon sits on a thick branch with deeply grooved bark, its body in silhouette against a bright sky. The leaves behind it have dissolved into green blur. It holds very still, head turned to one side, as if listening for something in the bar below. Then it shifts its weight, a small adjustment, and goes on sitting.
