An image to me reflects many things, particularly my mood in the moment. Most of the time though when I take a picture of water, it is peace I feel. Contemplation. And for a moment it's something I want to capture, something I want to hold on and save for moments of need. This picture is of a morning when I was in Oregon on the coast walking by myself. The wind was warm and blowing nicely and it was early enough that there wasn't anyone else around. It felt like the waves were washing over me bringing me confidence and peace. Those moments often feel like eternity to me, that there is no time present. Those feelings are so powerful no word can express, so sometimes I try to in a piano piece or in a photo. Even now this photo brings me there, I'm sitting in the wet sand by myself, with just my camera, hugging my knees and resting my head on top. Letting the wind take me wherever it's story goes.
