Stress can affect our health negatively, this we all know. But simple things that cost not money are effective antidote to stress. Did you know? Beautiful sceneries like the sunset can be soothing to the mind and body, easing stress and creating deep happiness and joy when enjoyed with friends, especially ones we share our life with as couples. This is exactly what went down yesterday with some dear friends at the famous love garden somewhere in southern Nigeria. Below are some shots worth a thousand words.

Here's a raw capture of @ddwosky and @eliany enjoying the serene and breezy garden in the evening. Two love birds very close to my heart these are.

Above image captures the sky letting the night cover over the sun. Yes, that's how the sun sets here in the town of Uyo, Nigeria. So stunning and awesome to behold.

But besides the beautiful sunset, there were beautiful people to enjoy the evening along with me and I took a few shots to preserve the memory.

Meet Itoro and God bless.

They'll be on Steemit soon. You'll get to know them more I promise.
Great friends in deed they are! And guess what? They just got wedded less than a month ago. So their honeymoon is still on and they are here to share their joy of love with us this beautiful evening.

They are a very cute couple are they not?

Meet another love birds in the park this evening. Sure you've met them here on Steemit before @ddwosky and @eliany. These are less than a year old together in marriage and their love only grows thicker and stronger. They are fun to spend time with, believe me! The evening was all set up to be a great one in deed.

Here's another stunning shot from my Redmi Note 8 camera, no filters. @eliany and @godblezz

Yea, I cant resist to hint that this awesome evening was enjoyed with @ngoenyi and @benton3 (more pics and videos on their blog guys, please visit)

Isn't it amazing what nature has gifted us?

The gift of love, friendship and serene environments.

So when you think of photography, think of the health benefits of the shots captured. The joys and love and friendship and serenity in the moments shot through the lens of your camera can provide the much needed antidote to stress and improve your mental wellness long after the moments have been enjoyed.

Thank you for reading my post. And always remember to capture those pleasant moments each day.
