A Christian cross had been erected on what might have been a gravesite. It was distantly visible on shore.

The land was a green slice, sandwiched between the blue sky and the rippled blue water of the estuary.

The boat paused to allow photography of birds. The lack of movement gave the water a smoother surface.

The water became so still that it reflected the mangroves growing above, into the water below.

At the estuary's end, the water became so calm that it assumed the appearance of a mirror.
