Shot narrative:
Taken before sunrise at Folkestone, Kent

Rarely do we know when we’ll see something or someone for the last time. If we ever did, how differently would we act as if every moment was the last.

Life is too precious, yet ever so fragile. Like most things in life it takes a lifetime to build but can be destroyed in a matter seconds. How easy It should be to cherish every second, yet it’s only ever with hindsight that we reflect on what could have been.

The impressions of life are forever etched into others memories and thoughts, and although gone in body, the spirit and essence of life lives on through others.

If only life was care and stress free enough to be able to live every second to the full and appreciate every god damn moment you can.

    So true Stuart, we humans will forever have to remind ourselves of these things…........so easily taken for granted when we aren’t paying attention.

    It’s such a beautiful dreamy photograph.
