One of my favorite past-times is exploring some of the beautiful and hidden locations that are scattered all throughout BC. This photo was taken in a lake hidden deep in the back of Mission. My dad and I had trekked through muddy paths in the pouring rain and found a small beach banking a large lake. Jutting out was this isolated tree, and the scene just instantly brought me peace, hence the name “Ataraxia” for the photo, a Greek word meaning freedom from distress and worry.
