I found immense joy in capturing fleeting moments, even amidst the hustle and bustle of new destinations. Although I long for more shots for post-production purposes, I am grateful for the ones I managed to seize. Reflecting on my photographs, I am deeply appreciative of the individuals who shared those moments with me, enriching the meaning behind each image. A heartfelt thank you to all who contributed.
