During a botched backup, I lost the original of this photo 😭 so unfortunately I’ll never have a blown up print of it, but it will at least forever live here on IG. In memory of it, I took the edit I did three years ago and tweaked a few things (after refining my post processing skills) to bring out the colors I remember from this moment. Enjoy 💙

17mi and 12hrs of hiking on my 30th birthday. One of the moments that took my breath away and had me a little emotional. Climbing to the top of this hike to see this reward during the hardest year of my life would foreshadow the growth and joy I’d find in the next two years. A moment I’ll cherish forever.

Background on the edit—I posted this photo once two years ago, was unhappy with the edit and deleted it. Years after, after almost losing my external hard drive to a broken motor, I had it recovered and dug up this photo to recreate my memory of this moment with newer and refined skills I’ve developed over the years. It was shot on my old 5DMkIV at 17mm|100ISO|f8|1/100sec. Anywho—enjoy 🙏

I have to do things like jump into freezing cold lakes, because they’re little. Yes it’s cold, yes it’s uncomfortable and unnecessary—but compared to life’s adversity, it’s mere practice for the bigger things. It reminds my body and mind that I’m capable of displacing myself from comfort if I ever need to. It also reminds me that fear is temporary, and is cut from the head when I lean into it. Not to mention, it’s the biggest thrill to do what scares you. After all, “life’s about finding the cliff worth jumping off.” - Anthony Bourdain
