Seeing the beauty in the world around us

3 comments so far


I admire photographers because they can capture the beauty in so many things that are 1. either extremely ordinary or 2. obviously beautiful, but difficult to reproduce in a photo.

I stumbled upon a wonderful Flickr stream full of photos I found remarkable, unexpected or made an involuntary smile break out across my face. As I look at them my imagination easily wanders to beautiful places where coffee cups become eye candy, youthful innocence is seen everywhere and raspberries in a bowl become so beautiful you don’t dare eat them.

As part of the mission of LivSimpl is to “enjoy the little things we all too often take for granted”, I thought it would be appropriate to direct you to the site so you can hopefully find some of the same pleasure and wonderment in this talented photographer’s view of the world. And, if you’re like me, you’ll come away looking at things, and for things, in a new way.

    Dave,
    I really enjoyed this one. I was actually online the other night looking for some cool free photos but was not successful. Perfect timing on this one my friend!

    Miss H – Please keep in mind that I asked permission to use her photographs. ;) She is a very talented photographer. I’ve actually subscribed to her RSS feed off of Flickr.
