For some, it is in a full day's work to escape the concrete jungle and satisfy the soul with the saltwater that it desires. It is these dedicated humans that truly promote the passion that the ocean can create. Their desire to reach the "fountain of youth" for a cleansing of mind, body, and spirit can be stopped at nothing. By the break of dawn, these crusaders are up and navigating through the corridors of society with one end goal in sight. And when they reach this light at the end of the tunnel, they will drink up as much of it as they can before the veil of the night will not allow for any more. From sunrise to sunset, it is within these individuals that the pursuit of happiness can be found. The following photos were taken by, and of, Jack Whitefield during his pursuit for the sancitity that the ocean provides.
