I created the background from pages I saved from a Restoration Hardware catalog; they've been stuffed in my "save" drawer for a while. There's a lot of merging and blending and copies of the photos to create the effects. The book is made by combining paper and book edges with heavy custom shadows. Page curl added via a gradient and transform effect.

We've been taught to dream, to plan, to have goals, to look to the future, but really, all we have is now, and we cant afford to waste it.
Its hard not to feel like were wasting time, waiting for this pandemic to be over, before we can hike, before we can be together with our families, before we can fully live again.
