This style evokes the atmosphere of aged nautical photography and vintage coastal postcards. Images feature muted teal and sepia tones with soft grain textures, creating a sense of salt-worn authenticity. Compositions often feel like recovered memories from a lighthouse keeper's journal, with dramatic cloud formations and gentle vignetting around the edges.
