In contrapposto.
This year I challenged myself in capturing some self-portraits in the nudes. I was inspired by Michelangelo's David and so decided to create a similar pose. Here I set the camera and stood in place for a minute. As the year progresses, I plan to do more this fall and winter.
The garden belongs to, and is maintained by, my mom. When staring at the wall and questioning life, I remind myself often that everything I am and have is in parts due to her, reminding me always to never give up and to keep moving forward.
Life is the journey to our destination.
