America’s Favorite Photos
Rekindling America’s Appreciation of Photography

Just breathe

Life can be so challenging yet beautiful and awe inspiring! I witnessed this sunset on an eve when I was seeking answers and clarity. When I looked up and saw it, I was instantly reminded that all I needed to do was BE and BREATHE. I feel this way every time I view this incredible sunset. It’s as if I have a sudden awareness that everything is ok just as it is and how important it is to lean in and be present in the moment. Just breathe.

I’m an integrative nurse seeking balance at this time in my life. As I enter this contest, I’m reminded how much I love photography! It encourages me to be fully present, still, and engaged. And then I reap the benefits of capturing a moment in time, in my life…which is a gift!
