I’ve concentrated on the idea of capturing the beauty of the small moments through a large part of nature. Through my eyes, I’ve always seen that the world is full of beauty and color through many shades, patterns and textures. By doing so, I took my focus on bringing out contrast in my work, which tends to bring out a lot of bright coloring and depth in texture. This shows to represent the idea of the new beginnings that are to come, guiding along feelings of tranquility and certainty. As for someone who has struggled to control their anxiety, looking back at these photos has allowed me to be guided by these feelings, to show the true meaning behind how something so condensed can create such encouraging sentiments for the future. Through my work, I have come to learn that through the rough and rugged moments that may be faced, there is always light at the end of the tunnel.
