E' curioso a vedere che gli uomini di molto merito hanno sempre le maniere semplici, e che sempre le maniere semplici sono prese per indizio di poco merito.
Giacomo Leopardi.
And 'interesting to see that men have always greatly on the simple ways and simple manners are always taken for evidence of little merit.
Giacomo Leopardi
The simplicity does appeal to me.
I know that there are many images like this on Flickr, but I ask you to contemplate if beauty can ever truly be redundant (or "cliché", as some like to call it)? Would love your thoughts on that question.

Leonardo da Vinci once said that simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. Simplicity in design calms us and somehow inspires us, not only in architecture but also in other forms of design. Apple, for example, has refined its products over the years to such a beautiful simplicity that the products have become collectibles based on their design alone.

Manifest plainness,
Embrace simplicity,
Reduce selfishness,
Have few desires.

Have a great day everyone. I see they are now going to come out with another new layout. I don't like that one either. I couldn't figure out how to get to the next photo. Making it harder and harder to come here these days.

We call these Popcorn Orchids - but they are little Oncidiums Orchids. I have these in a pot just attached to our fence - they are very easy to grow.

“As I have practiced it, photography produces pleasure by simplicity. I see something special and show it to the camera. A picture is produced. The moment is held until someone sees it. Then it is theirs.” (Sam Abell quote)
