After walking down to the beach, the first thing I noticed was this bright source of light in the distance. It was a new restaurant I hadn't seen before, right at the beach. Unfortunately, it had huge lights that almost blinded me while I passed the place. I almost turned back to my car because it was something I had not wanted to be in my photographs, but I kept on walking along the beach and saw a lifeguard chair and a lifeboat. I took some shots and ended up in a darker part of the beach. As my eyes got used to the darkness, I loved how the dunes and sand looked. 

When I saw this feather in the sand, I knew something intrigued me. I envisioned a shallow depth-of-field photograph with stars in the background and the feather as the central part of the image. I captured a couple of different shots while lying on the ground and waiting for the camera to take the long exposures. While lying on the sand, I was in awe of the moment and how something so simple as a feather could get me in that state of awe.
