SAVORING SUNSHINE

Val basks in the sun and meditates as she awaits for her friends, Ohn & Rosie to arrive. It happens to be one of the first warm beach days of the season. The friends enjoy solitude and tranquility as the sun starts to set, taking in the natural beauty of their surroundings with the sparkling city slightly out of view... but still just a stone’s throw away. They are realizing that with climate change happening and sea levels rising, the current landscape is bound to change. It’s unfortunately only a matter of time.
