Give thanks ....

Thursday, November 24

National Geographic recently released this beautiful video, which features inspiring and breathtaking images from its new photography book, "Visions of Earth: Beauty, Majesty and Wonder." The video alone is an incredible reminder to be appreciative of what we have and what nature provides. Happy Thanksgiving! 

New gypsies ....

Tuesday, October 11

"The New Gypsies" will soon be on my bookshelf. Roaming the countryside as a gypsy would be a crazy adventure. Imagine the freedom! In this book, photographer Iain McKell followed the Horse Drawn Travelers, off-and-on, for 10 years. Their culture is built around the ideas of freedom, nature and living a low carbon footprint lifestyle. The movement began in the mid-1980s when a group of Post-Punk Anti-Thatcher protesters left London for the English countryside. They now live in horse-drawn caravans. "The New Gypsies" was released in April.

Gone rogue ....

I love this stunning editorial photographed by Ross Laurence. Shot exclusively for Fashion Gone Rogue, Datcha features model Ulia True in the Russian countryside. Plenty of gorgeous natural light and I'm coveting those vintage dresses.  

Etsy love ....

Romina Bacci of Miles Of Light has one of the most beautiful nature-inspired prints I've ever seen. I love that you are free to admire the uniqueness of each item in a photograph, but together the different pieces make it one stunning piece of art. In an Etsy feature, she described that Miles of Light began as a photographic diary that documented her life and travels between North and South America. Romina also shared her creative process, which involves a nature walk and coming home with pockets, hands and bags full of feathers, leaves, flowers, twigs, etc. She later organizes the elements, takes pictures, and rearranges them over and over and over again. What a wonderful way to spend an afternoon! And because I couldn't resist, you'll find a few photos from her portfolio below. Oh! And Romina's blog is right here.



*Special thanks to Romina for allowing me to share her work.

Happy weekend ....

Enjoy these lovely photos from Sarah Bernhard. These make me want to go out and explore this weekend. I will try to do so after all the errands are done. See you back here Monday!

So artistic ....

I love these prints from Papermoth on Etsy. They're definite frontrunners for my space. I'd hang them near my bed so that these beauties would be the first things I see when I wake up.
