Amen Michelle!! We all need some balance in some aspects of our lives and I think it is great that you know where you need to find yours. Kudos! Hope your class went well!!

Thanks Sarah! The class is really fun. There are 3 teens in it, so there's never a dull moment. I think it's amazing how quickly they take to SCUBA! I know that fearlessness can be a bad thing at times but it's refreshing to see how open the young mind is to new things.

Michelle - you take beautiful photos full stop, but what i truly love is the beauty of your shots of people. You always capture such a soft aspect of them. Something I need to get much better at. Very nice.
