This week and next, we will be highlighting photographs that have been taken on family staycations. In our monthly newsletter, Stepping Stones, we had asked readers to submit staycation photos with a note about them and why the pictures were significant. Here are two photos with descriptions about their meaning:
“We went to a local farmers’ market to get some fresh produce. I always enjoy seeing the beautiful fruits and vegetables displayed. This time they were especially nice and I had my camera with me so I snapped away. I like my children to know that food doesn’t just come from the grocery store!”
“Over the weekend, my husband and I went to a lake a few hours away to relax. The scenery was serene – green trees, blue sky, rich brown earth, gentle water – and we felt so peaceful. As I was taking pictures of the quiet lake, two men floated by, paddling a surfboard. They just struck me as a great combination of strength, agility, determination and tranquility.”
If you, too, have staycation photos you want to share, send them to us at: mentors@hermentorcenter.com.
