After my eyes went cross looking at so many amazing photos on the CC sites, I was overwhelmed. I know that I take pretty decent photos, so I decided that I would use one of mine.
This is my son, Jasper, over 10 years ago on Melbourne Beach, Florida. We went to visit family friends for the day. Jasper was the only little one and I could tell he was getting restless, so we took the short walk to the ocean. It was early March, still cool enough not to swim, but nice enough to dip our toes. If I had to choose a soundtrack for this moment when I replay it in my mind, I think AudioCoffee captured what makes the image come to life. We ran around on the beach in and out of the water, laughing and splashing. Now that he is much older, I often think about little moments like this, remembering the sun on our cheeks, toes in the tide, and that unmistakable little laugh.
To Note: I only used the intro and outro to HappyFeelings (shortver2) Because the license is CC BY-NC, (allows reusers to distribute, remix, adapt, and build upon the material in any medium or format) I used AudioMass to cut and splice the parts of the audio I liked the best.
