Quiet Reflection On Balboa Island: Your Newport Beach Photo Of The Day
Laguna Beach resident Susana Cruciana took to Newport Beach's Balboa Island early in the pandemic to find peace amid the COVID-19 chaos.
NEWPORT BEACH, CA — The early days of COVID-19 brought a period of intense certainty for people, and amid all the chaos, Laguna Beach resident Susana Cruciana sought peace on Newport Beach's Balboa Island.
Here's what she had to say about her picture:
[It was] taken on a bright day in May 2020, when I first started getting out to explore and find beauty in the chaos of the pandemic. I hadn’t been to Balboa in years and fell in love with the colors and reflections of the houses in the canals. I had the ferry to myself and savored the experience.
More of Cruciana's photos can be viewed on her Instagram page.
