I try to capture temperature + smell in my photos. I think I am getting closer. I take photos because I have to, not beause I want to. I need this beauty/healing for myself before sharing it with others as artwork My goal is to bring back the highest form of beauty/calm. I swam through these colors obeying my orders of "Just show us what Carmel looks like to you".

This was my first time ever seeing Big Sur + Carmel. It was hauntingly beautiful + I caught some of it's energy in this Polaroid stillness - Matt
