Yin Yang Shiver

A bait ball of sardines had two sharks enter them, which captured the attention of beachgoers and kept them out of the ocean. This lasted for days with more than 100 sharks and millions of sardines. The sardines part way as the sharks dart within them, reminding me of the Yin and Yang of life.

About Artist

Sonia Friedrich

Through the lens I am inspired to slow down, see life from a wonderfully new perspective, and often see what my eye, on its own, is unable to see. I connect with something that provides a moment of awe. That I wish to hold onto longer.​ I find these moments occur for me in nature. Here I feel connected and am constantly surprised with what lies right in front of me. All it takes is to slow down and wait. Something magical always appears. I aim to share a moment that captured me with awe, beauty, or surprise, and take you there. ​I trust you see and feel this inspiration too. Enjoy the moment.
