These photos, it's like a piece of my soul. Taken in the wild Scottish highlands, 2022. We hunted those free-spirited ponies for an entire day, only to be left drenched and defeated, chasing shadows in the fading light. The next day, the soggy ground echoed beneath our squelching boots as we clawed our way up the hillside. A glimmer of white, and there they were, those gentle souls.
Clinging to the slope, we settled among the ponies, their quiet munching a soothing lullaby amidst the tempest of Scottish rain and wind. There, surrounded by the elements, I felt infinitesimal, and strangely, so did the problems that had weighed me down. I can't recall those challenges now, and in that moment, they were but whispers against the roar of nature's grandeur.
These photos speaks of resilience. They whispers that no matter the odds, we'll press on, we'll conquer. It's a promise to myself, etched in pixels and print, that we're built to endure.
