Failing at something doesn’t define you. It’s a single moment, not your whole story.

Autumn is right around the corner and colors are popping up.

You never return to being who you remember before your life was turned upside down. But you can embrace who you are meant to become in the turnaround.

The purpose of life is planting trees under whose shade you do not expect to sit.

Had to stop for a shot at my favorite battlefield lone tree. It has seen better days.

Positive people are not ignoring the darkness of this world, they have dragged themselves painfully into the light and are choosing to share it with you.

Enjoying the last bit of the day’s light with Mr Jackson.

Locals will know this place. I’ve been wanting to shoot this place for more than three years. Foiled by weather, scouting for a safe spot, and my own schedule (more times than I’d like to admit).

Winston Chapel. It’s in a state of disrepair but still a beauty. Passing car’s headlights lit up the chapel and steeple.

For the record, I did stay off the chapel grounds. Just.
