An open paperback book lies on a teal towel, resting on a pebble beach. The pages are filled with text and are illuminated by sunlight. The beach slopes down towards a blue sea in the background. The surface of the water is dotted with tiny white sparkles of reflected sunlight. There is a blurry figure swimming in the distance, and a sailboat is visible in the far background. This scene was captured at a beach in Primošten Burnji, Croatia, with coordinates 43.609 latitude and 15.926 longitude.
