Photography
As I stand here on the edge of the world, I feel a sense of sorrow.
Nothing could’ve ruined this moment- the waves crashing beneath, turquoise water stretching to the horizon.
Nothing, except this.
You can capture a moment many ways- words. Painting. Photo.
Each can take you somewhere.
But as the world seems to silence, I find a need to capture the moment.
The periwinkle clouds turning dark blues and purples, the sky transitioning subtly from blue to violent red and orange, the sun a soft yellow.
I think of a painting first- where I could express these vibrant colors best- but come up short.
A painting can come from imagination, real life, or a thought.
But to truly capture this moment...
That’s how I got into photography.
At the end of the world, watching the sun sink below the sea.
