I got up super early today to do something I’ve been meaning to do for far too long: take a trip to the beach!  And I can’t even begin to describe the absolute joy and peace I experienced just waiting, watching, listening, and shooting.

I quickly discovered what I love most about photography.  It’s just me and my camera and my God.  That’s it.  No distractions.  Nothing pulling on me.

Just presence.

Just now.

Love the moment,
and the
energy of that moment
will
spread
beyond all boundaries.
