Sanctuary

Save

Become a Fan

A troubled spirit is renewed by the miracle of nature.

Reclining upon a sugar white beach shaded by softly swaying palms, my eye was drawn by a tall blue heron striding elegantly through the sanctuary.

Searching for delicacies as he wades through the clear sapphire lagoon, a lone fisherman stands upon a worn pier patiently awaiting his catch.

As the miracle of wildlife and nature unfold, my spirit is renewed, the hum of a faraway city forgotten.
