“Every stage of life is unique.

At any age and stage of life there are obstacles and opportunities, trials and triumphs.

Never allow the negative bring to you to sudden halt.

Make the most of the positive opportunities and stay positive.”

and that larger stage which is the world”

re-edited for 2023 Both photos were shot at the same f-stop and shutter speed, yet this photo is definitely sharper. Proof that camera shake can ruin critical focus and how different lighting can effect the sharpness of your image.
