Lately, my cravings have been leading me deeper and deeper into the forest. I find so much peace there. The moment I walk into an old-growth forest I can feel the energy in my body shift and settle. Quiet.

When I find myself in the forest with my camera, I seek the sacred details. The sacred geometry. It’s a newfound fascination for my photography and a perfect one for the rainy season when all things living experience exponential expansion and growth. Why do photos that capture perfect geometry, like this one I took in New Zealand, exude so much more magic? Why do I feel this photo as a calm truth in my heart?

It’s sacred.

That’s the only answer that makes sense to me.

Sacred Jungle Geometry Abounds in Costa Rica

I took this photo a few weeks back on my first trip to Monteverde Cloud Forest. I can’t believe that I have lived here for three years and this was my first time there. What a magical place. Thousands of acres of protected old-growth forest and endless trails for you to lose yourself on. To put a little perspective on it, I am told the fern pictured here grows only one centimetre per year.

This is a place I will come back to again and again. To find the sacred jungle geometry. To find the peace in my heart.
