Helena Van der Lans, Simplicity (September theme: What Matters to Me )

This photo was taken in my backyard. A roaring fire was going and the moon was shining brighter than it ever had before. I wanted to capture this moment, all the elements of life in one photo. Even though the fire and moon are two different things they look so good together, just like people. This photo matters a lot because it shows how beautiful things can be together, despite their differences. Equality, diversity and acceptance matters to me.
