People surfing, walking, just being. <br /> Watching them contemplate, prepare, envisioning the ride... <br /> I found how glorious the human spirit can be.<br /> At first I felt that I was intruding on sacred space <br /> and without disrespect, I began photographing from a distance. </font></span></p> <p align="left"><span style="font-size: small; "><font face="Trebuchet MS">My inspiration, my surroundings, my motivation has grown into my attempt<br /> to capture moments of peace and serenity so easily lost in our everyday lives. <br /> A true reminder to ground ourselves in a time of such uncertainty.</font></span></p> <p align="left"><span style="font-size: small; "><font face="Trebuchet MS">Just watching each individual pay their respects to the ocean... <br /> stare out to an endless sea of possibilities... I realized I <br /> am not alone in my addiction/love for the beach. <br /> Many of us long for it, some of us are fortunate to have it everyday. <br /> Many have said my work is a reminder of their time with the sea.</font></span><font face="Trebuchet MS"> </font></p> <p align="left"> </p> <p><span style="font-size: x-small; "> </span></p> <p align="left"> </p> <p> </p> <p style="text-align: center; "> </p> <p style="text-align: center; "> <span style="font-size: x-small; "> </span><font face="Trebuchet MS"><strong><font color="#0000ff">SEA</font><br /> </strong></font><font face="Trebuchet MS"><strong>"I really don't know why it is that all of us are so committed to the sea,<br /> except I think it's because in addition to the fact that the sea changes, <br /> and the light changes, and ships change, it's because we all came from the sea. </strong></font></p> <p style="text-align: center; "> <font face="Trebuchet MS"><strong>And it is an interesting </strong></font><font face="Trebuchet MS"><strong>biological fact that all of us have in our veins<br /> the exact same percentage of salt in our blood that exists in the ocean,<br /> and, therefore, we have salt in our blood,<br /> our sweat, and in our tears. </strong></font></p> <p style="text-align: center; "> <font face="Trebuchet MS"><strong>We are tied to the ocean.
