Tree of Hope

January 01, 2015

 

"Hope lies in dreams, in imagination, and in the courage of those who dare to make dreams into reality." - Jonas Salk

Started the year off with decluttering and reorganising parts of the house; the process actually took up more time than I had originally anticipated, but it does feel good to have the closets in order and the donation pile growing.

 

Figured I'd start off the year by showcasing this beautiful handcrafted origami tree, that probably has a proper name but I've forgotten. It was made for me by an amazing person and sits proudly on display in my dining room for any guest to admire.

 

I'll probably shoot this again someday; as my original idea for this is not what I shot today, but couldn't resist showing it off any longer.

 

This is a compliation of 5 shots, stacked together and then processed in Photoshop. Of course though, when showcasing something so beautiful, I don't feel I've done it justice.

 

Anyway, hope everyone has had a good day. It's a quick upload for me this evening, but I will be playing catch up with everyone's streams either later tonight or tomorrow.
