I'll Rise

On my knees before you

Worshipping at your feet

I feel a world away

From what has gone before

It’s a new beginning here

A chance to start again

And so with one last look

At the past I’ve left behind

I’ll rise into my future

Renewed

I still can't get over just how clear the skies were on this adventure. We had the most perfect conditions every night, and we took advantage of them, shooting as late as we could.

This trip really helped centre me after a pretty tough few months. and it left me inspired and renewed and energised to face whatever the future may bring.
