As this project continues to grow, we have decided to up the ante this week by adding an optional theme to consider when the moment strikes: find the most beautiful thing around you. The most wonderful part of this week was that each photographer did find beauty and in so many different ways. Be it in comfort, love, memories, aesthetics, or peace… beauty abounded! This serves as a reminder that we are indeed surrounded by beauty at any given moment.
All of these images were taken by different photographers across the globe at the same moment,
3:59 p.m. on Tuesday, May 26th.
Finding beauty
Clockwise from top left:
Cory (Maryland) was commuting back home from visiting art museums in Washington, D.C. She had just sat down as the moment was about to occur and searched for the most beautiful thing around her (besides her husband in the next seat) and zoomed in over the heads of the other commuters in the bus to snap a shot of the National Museum of the American Indian.
Kristin (Maine) was found in a quiet house (a real blessing with 3 children!). The most beautiful things to her when the moment struck were napping down the hall. Knowing her son was a sound sleeper, she snuck into the room he was sleeping captured the peaceful calm of this moment. Beauty has blessed her in many forms this time!
Aziza (Kuwait) was found in her bedroom when the moment occurred. Looking for the most beautiful thing around her, her eyes rested on her book collection. To her, this was the most beautiful thing in the room. What beauty those bindings are and the treasures those pages contain!
RC (California) was planning for summer knitting projects and playing with ideas and beautiful yarn from... centuries... of collecting. The most beautiful thing at the moment was a trinket of a memory - a small heart panel for a sweetheart sweater that she started long ago.
