The Courage to Be Yourself

My aerial artworks are unique photo portals that convey the energy of natural places of power. The energetic name of this piece is "The Courage to Be Yourself”.
What is in this picture? It won't be easy to guess. These are dunes of snow-white sand with water lagoons between them. I captured this image from a small plane flying over Lençóis Maranhenses National Park, one of Brazil's main natural gems.
Such a surreal relief is formed and changed by the wind. Sometimes the dunes reach a height of forty meters! And the lagoons are filled thanks to rain and tides.
