Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno, Gili Air, Lombok, Indonesia, Christine Phillips
This morning, I was up before sunrise to fly my drone. The Gili Islands—three tiny gems named Gili Trawangan, Gili Air, and Gili Meno—lay scattered across the sea like whispers of land. We were staying on Gili Trawangan, which appears closest to the camera in this image. Beyond it, you can see Gili Meno, followed by Gili Air, just before the majestic mountains of Lombok rise in the distance.
The drone hovered 120 meters high and about 300 meters away from me. The image itself is a composite of multiple exposure-bracketed shots, carefully layered to capture the full dynamic range of the rising sun—its soft light spilling across the water, painting the islands in hues of gold and serenity.
