Breathe Again

“After a storm comes a calm.” — Matthew Henry

This frame was taken on the first day of the ceasefire. For the first time in a while, there was space to breathe.

No rush, no tension in the air - just quiet. I didn't go far. I didn't need to. The light found me exactly where I was. Maybe nothing truly changed in that moment. But it felt like something did.

Like the world, just for a second… exhaled.
