When I was in high school, I spent a lot of time in my room, rarely going outside. I disliked the outdoors and avoided leaving my room if I could avoid it. Covid hit in the middle of my second semester at Stony Brook and all my classes went online, making me revert to my old habits. In my second online semester, I decided to take Intro to Photography, thinking it would be easier now that I was home and could photograph within my own home. However, every task pushed me to leave the house more and more. At some point I discovered a pretty cool place near my house that I never knew about. It became my favorite hang out place as well as one of my best locations for taking photos. I started leaving my house more often and I noticed that it improved my mental as well as physical health. I still visit that spot nearly two years later.
