JOY
This photograph captures the subject in the sanctuary of their own home, where they can let their guard down and be themselves. The image conveys a sense of freedom and carefreeness, highlighting the comfort and security that comes with being in a familiar space. It's a poignant reminder that, for some, this sense of liberation can be harder to find in the outside world.
