PTA "Magic of the Moment" photo
I choose this photo because I believe the man in the picture is taking in the beauty of the scenery. He is relaxing and enjoying the magnificence of nature. The magic in this moment is a human connecting with peace and harmony, which we seem to forget all to often today.Monday, October 8, 2012
