The picture shows a majestic crane standing on a calm lake. The crane is about to take off, its wings spread wide, giving it an elegant, almost dancing posture. The bird's movement seems to merge with the mirror-smooth surface of the water. The water reflects the silhouette of the crane and reinforces the impression that it is dancing on the water.
