Sand and Soul
good morning.

every sunrise
is a prayer.

For years I have filmed and photographed the sunrise over the bay. This is the archive. Every image here was taken during a sitting practice. Some are for sale. The rest are free.

I — First Light

the hour before
the day begins.

Pre-dawn is its own country. The light hasn't arrived yet but it is coming. The herons know. The water knows. Anyone awake at this hour has permission to know a different version of the world.

III — The Practice

the camera is
just the bell.

I don't sit to take photos. I take photos because I sit, and the camera is one of the ways I pay attention. The meditations here are the ones I come back to most. Free to read, free to practice.
