*Charleston’s Waters | Captured with Contax 645 on Fujifilm Pro 400h 120mm film*

I thought I’d been chasing light all these years—across oceans, along tree lined paths, in the garden, by the shore—but it turns out when I started to make a list of all my favorite things (which certainly includes moments and places filled with spectacular light) what I found I’ve really been searching for is a breath.

Moments that take your breath away and give it back in life for your soul.

A gorgeous vista.
A garden in bloom.
A smile to the eyes.
A gentle breeze.
A shimmering water view.
Crisp winter sunlight.
A lyrical poem.
Sabbath…

A place and a moment to breathe, standing in awe of our Maker and Breath Giver.

“And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.” Genesis 2:7
