Not A Lot of Words...


I don't have much to say, so I think I will
let the picture say everything which I can't seem
to put into words myself.

See The Beauty In Everything

I have been so inspired by photographs and drawings lately.
This one is no exception, I would love to know the story
behind it, and I hope who ever wrote it, got what they were
looking for.


So incredibly magical, and hauntingly beautiful at the same time. It
must have taken forever to harness the bed to the tree! At least
the end result is all worth it!
All the pictures in this post, and in the last one as well are from FFFFound.com, I am like addicted to that website ever since I discovered it. I would love to be a member of the site, but it is invitation only, so if you are a member and your reading this; please invite me! For some reason I am increasingly finding inspiration from photographs, drawings, even quotes which keep making me want to take lots and lots of pictures! The only problem is that I need to find some people to model for me, not a lot of my friends are that willing to let me take photographs of them!

Happiness Exists

These are a few of my favourite things:
1. This drawing reminds me that although I have experienced
some strange things, their is always something even stranger waiting to
be experienced.



2. Postsecret. Their is nothing else like it; to know that
someone else might have the same secret as you no matter how funny,
embarrassing, or sad they are, connects us all.

3. This reminds me of a huge painting which I once saw in
the Clark Museum (it has a lot of impressionist art), since they
look like woodland creatures.

4. Robins egg blue is so pretty


5. This is such an intriguing picture, I like it!


6. The perfect bedroom fit for dreaming and
reading fairy tales, it is practically a fairytale it self!


7. I can't seem to figure out why I love this photograph, but
I think it might have to do with the fact that the blue couch
matches the exact colour of the water in the background;
its so magical.
And so these are a few of my favourite things right now, told in photograph form.

Big Yellow Taxi

Joni Mitchell

Look At The Stars...


Look at the stars.
They're the same stars as last week,
Last year.
Same as when we were kids.
When we weren't even born.
In a hundred years,
No one will ever know who we are,
But they'll know those same stars.
Isn't the quote beautiful? Have you ever found something so wonderfully beautiful, that when you think about it, it makes you sad to think that you might not ever succeed in making something nearly as beautiful as it? Though it is my hope that I shall always capture a piece of beauty, no matter what I do, if I cannot capture the whole thing. If I have even caught a glimmer of that beauty, then I shall be satisfied. Every one's way of capturing beauty is different; for some it is by painting, for others it is by dancing, but for me it is by taking photographs. As I have said countless times on here, photography truly makes me happy and at ease with the world, for I know that each photo which I take has a story and a message behind it and sometimes if I am lucky, that rare piece of beauty which is so hard to capture.

Diary



This is simply one of the cutest diaries I have ever come across, it makes me want to consistently journal in it every day (whereas I normally give up after a month). With its creative take on a daily diary entry it makes it easy to write in your journal once a day. I really want it in the bright cherry yellow colour, although it comes in a variety of other colours as well. It would make the perfect gift for a friend who has a birthday coming up or someone who is graduating soon! You can get it on Taschen.com, if you are interested in it (they also have alot of other interesting books too on a variety of different subjects).

I don't have much to say about this picture other then the fact
that I love it and it makes me happy everytime I look at it.
