Four years ago I wondered what it would be like to see the first sunrise of a new year in place of staying up till midnight on the New Years eve. Four years later it has become my favorite celebratory tradition. At 6:30 am it is quiet, calm, and dark. Slowly light seeps back into my world as joy for a new year full of possibilities and adventure fills my soul. Below are the photos I captured as the sun rose over San Elijo Laguna in California.
You can’t pause life, whether tragic or triumphant, life is not waiting for you to succeed. It is here and now. It is and has been moving you forward all this time. It’s all UP TO YOU!
WHAT DO YOU HOPE THE NEW YEAR WILL BRING?
