One Last Glance (2024) Fotografia autorstwa Lucas Biston Reichling (LBR Photojourney)

"One Last Glance" captures a poignant moment, where a solitary figure turns away from their car—a vehicle that has carried them through unknown landscapes. On the surface, it depicts a simple act of departure, a moment of finality where human and machine part ways. The car, with its sleek lines and subtle power, becomes more than just a machine; it stands as a faithful companion on the journey, one that has witnessed the trials, the silence, and the beauty along the way.

Yet, beneath this visible layer lies a deeper reflection. The car symbolizes more than mobility; it is a vessel that has carried not just the body, but the spirit, through the winding roads of life, always bringing us home, no matter how far we wander. It embodies the notion that journeys, no matter their length or scope, lead us back to something familiar, a place of comfort and recognition. The human, stepping away, echoes this sentiment—wherever we travel, we inevitably return to where we started, both physically and emotionally.

On the third level, this photograph opens a door to introspection, not only of this image but of the entire series. The first and last images were captured in the same location. Was there ever truly a journey? Or has the entire series been a meditation, an exploration of the self through the imagined paths of the mind? This final scene forces us to question whether the roads traveled were ever real, or simply a mental voyage of the person we saw in "Horizons Await", pondering their life, their journeys, and the paths they have walked, only to end right where they began.
