Summer Drive

Words & Photography
by Ashley Hallmark

Moments that nourish me, ground me, fill me up with hope and harmony...It's everything I long to remember, and all I need to know.

Three shutter releases that define my everything. What I long for, what I hold to as my deepest truth, my greatest authenticity, the habit that is my cornerstone - looking for good, looking for light, and letting long, meandering drives on an Ozark summer evening be enough. Time with those I hold dear, the ones I love and who sustain me, even in Life's predictable chaos and unknowns. Moments that nourish me, ground me, fill me up with hope and harmony. Of windows rolled down and the heavy air after a rainstorm washing over us.

It's everything I long to remember, and all I need to know.
