Christine Bauer, Kids Rocks (PEOPLE 2025)

We were at a lovely beach nearing sunset, the kids ran ahead, so hard to catch up to them in the sand and with a camera and they found a perfect rock to climb and I got there in time to catch the silhouettes. They always climb, always looking for something to climb and often its so unreachable for me. This reminded me of a Goonies caper, just out of reach of adults, just kids and their world. Up they went and back down.
