Seaside Adventure by Anastasia Markus
The photo shows the sea and pine trees along the shore. Sitting on one of the logs is a 9-year-old girl. She has long, flowing red hair that dances in the wind. She's wearing autumn clothes. Her smile shines against the bright sky. The girl gazes into the distance, as if dreaming of new adventures. This moment fills the heart with warmth and joy.
Solidarity, Revolution, Hope by Swati Iyer
This photo was taken at one of the first protest in support of a ceasefire and a free Palestine on October 29th 2023 in the Hague, Netherlands. The photo is a stark reminder of revolutions against injustice, taken in front of the independence monument in the Hague, a statue commemorating the end of the French era in the Netherlands.
Blueberry Macarons by Leanne Lindsay
Sometimes a gray afternoon can spark a little creativity in the kitchen! The rain was coming down in sheets the other day, and I just wasn't in the mood to be stuck inside. But instead of curling up on the couch, I decided to combine my love of baking with my love of photography. I whipped up a batch of these delicious blueberry macarons, and while they were baking, I prepped my camera to capture them.
Even though the weather outside was gloomy, the warm light from my living room window created a perfect spotlight for my little morsels. I love how the camera captured the vibrant colors of the blueberries against the deep grey plate. And baking always makes my kitchen feel cozy and inviting, so it was only fitting that the photo turned out the same way.
