The world is full of magical things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper. – W.B. Yeats
In our rush through life, we often overlook the extraordinary that lies within the ordinary — the beauty, poignancy, and simple poetic elegance so commonly found in ordinary moments: Random objects that appear in perfect symmetry. Human moments that define our humanity. Light that falls elegantly on a subject to perfectly describe it. With your work and your eye, show us the extraordinary beauty that lies all around us in ordinary moments.
All captures and processes are welcome.
