shutter sisters one word challenge for march :: beautiful.

 

i had fun at the video store looking for this movie to take this photo. i thought about it all morning and i'm happy with how it turned out. it was also funny to see the guys face in the store when we left emptyhanded. "are you ready to check out?" ~ "oh no, " i said, "i just came to take a photo. thanks!"

For a typical Bangladeshi girl, marriage is the initiation of a new odyssey.

It is a tradition for a Bangladeshi bride, to watch the bridegroom (and vice versa) through the looking glass in a typical marriage ceremony. Usually they become shy during the occasion. So, by this custom, one can get a quick glimpse of the person s/he's going to across the journey with. This tradition is called 'Rusmat'.

 

So, In Bangladesh,

Everyone is Alice here...

Waiting to initiate her journey to the wonderland...

Through the looking glass...

Dhaka.

This was taken at the Ouachita River. A special moment with mother and daughter.

Not everyone you come across in your life, is meant to stay till last and stamp their own story in your life, but only a short chapter, consisting of many interesting lessons, and little short stories cherished with love and happiness.

 

Life is beautiful, when you have a beautiful mind.

Life IS Beautiful 2015 in Las Vegas. Artists use the vacant buildings downtown to showcase their amazing talent. From vivid colors to muted tans and browns, each wall reflected that artists talent and vision.

Thank you Martine for giving me permission to publish this lovely photo of Manoe which she took in Maastricht on 8 July 2010, Here are some thought from Martine,

Love doesn't ask why

It speaks from the heart

And never explains

Don't you know that Love

Doesn't think twice

It can come all at once

Or whisper from a distance

 

Don't ask me if this feeling's right or wrong

It doesn't have to make much sense

It just has to be this strong

'Cause when you're in my arms I understand

We don't try to have a voice

When our hearts make the choices

There's no plan

It's in our hands

 

Love doesn't ask why

It speaks from the heart

And never explains

Don't you know that Love

Doesn't think twice

It can come all at once

Or whisper from a distance

 

Now I can feel what you're afraid to say

If you give your soul to me

Will you give too much away

We can't let this moment pass us by

Can't question this chance

Or expect any answers

We can try

But love doesn't ask you why

 

So let's take what we found

And wrap it around us

 

Love doesn't ask why

It speaks from the heart

And never explains

Don't you know that Love

Doesn't think twice

It can come all at once

Or whisper from a distance

 

Love doesn't ask why

It’s the roses’ time... nothing to say more... it’s all in the song... got it ? :)

A great song from a great movie Life is beautiful

The forecast has been announcing a warm, sunny weekend, and so far the Sunday morning did not disappoint. After a delicious breakfast I picked up some fresh strawberries and enjoyed a fresh shake on the balcony. Here's to beautiful mornings!

...hope everyone is having a nice weekend, and apologies for the break in posting new images. My motivation is coming back a little bit, but it seems to be a work in progress.

 

Take care and will be around to make comments later today!

We celebrate light in our pictures. Understanding how light interacts with the camera is paramount to the work we do. The temperature, intensity and source of light can wield different photography effect on the same subject or scene; add ISO, aperture and speed, the camera, the lens type, focal length and filters…the combination is varied and multi-layered and if you know how to use them all, you will come to appreciate that all lights are useful, even those surrounded by a lot of darkness.

 

We are guided by three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, our longing to capture in print, that which is beautiful, the constant search for the one picture, and constant barrage of new equipment and style of photography. These passions, like great winds, have blown us across the globe in search of the one and we do understand the one we do look for might be this picture right here for someone else out there.
