“Paddle Boarders Sunset”
Grant won a 5 night trip with Solitude Liveaboards in Lembeh, Indonesia
The Story: Stand up paddle boarders were out exploring the shallow reefs at sunset. I wanted to demonstrate the innate bond humans have with the ocean, whether we are physically in it or floating on the surface. Our inherent relationship with the ocean is eternal and we must care for it in a way that ensures sustainability for the future.
