Description is exactly This photo was taken on a secluded trail I've loved for years; it's somewhere where I've always felt like I could be myself. I took this photo about four months after my top surgery, at a time I was learning to inhabit my body without apology. My scars are a source of pride and a reminder of the life I chose for myself. They make me feel deeply, and confidently butch. The surgery marked a profound return to myself - my lesbian, trans, and butch self.
