2024 Contemplative Photography Recap

In a museum, John captures the light from the ice cave in Reykjavik, Iceland.

Contemplative photography helps Rev. Johnny Ray Simon slow down. When John looks through the camera lens, he takes time to focus and see, becoming aware of and present with what is happening around him. For John, contemplative photography is a joyful, playful experience. John shares his photos with Heart Matters monthly email newsletter.

Here is a recap of some of the best pics from 2024.
