something bigger than ourselves x 108

North End Yoga was host to Boston's contingent of the worldwide Yoga Stops Traffick benefit to raise money in support of victims of human trafficking in India. We rolled out our mats in their beautiful, sunlit studio and together this group of supporters practiced 108 sun salutations. I joined for the first sixty or so before strapping on my camera and snapping these photos. I have to say, I know we all do yoga for different reasons, but today it was so satisfactory to come together and really direct our effort towards a cause. And while I do attempt to be tasteful when I photograph yoga events by not getting right in people's sweaty faces, don't be fooled. 108 salutations is a big effort!
