17th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Beach day in South Milwaukee

This is my second time at this beach, it's an escape on my PTSD anniversary. It's always a bright and sunny day, and this day was no exception. It's where I collect my sea glass, burn under a merciless Sun, and relax on a truly traumatic day.
