entry description
Although the waters were dark, shafts of side light were breaking through what was an overcast morning, illuminating this striking sea stack in the Mediterranean Sea. In that moment, I was compelled to name this image Theia. In Greek mythology, Theia was a Titan goddess of shining and light. My imagination raced. I saw faces beneath Theia. Was it Hyperion? Were they her children? Were there attempts to hold her down or was she propelling those beneath her upwards? I felt her presence and uplifting radiance, there was no holding this goddess down.about the photographer
