18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Mobile
Expanse

This photo was taken in Bandon, Oregon, last year. A lone person walks the beach in the early morning. The coast of Oregon is otherworldly, like it's at the edge of the universe. This photo embodies everything I felt when visiting - looking at it, it almost feels like I'm back, right down to the chill in the air. And the peace.
