Finding Beauty

“The power of finding beauty in the humblest things makes home happy and life lovely.”
Louisa May Alcott


Photography has taught me to look for beauty in everything, like this box of leftover flower petals I found on my mom's porch, soon to be discarded. This is literally about to become trash. Yet I was drawn to this instead of the planted flowers they came from.  If I had just taken a picture of the flowers alone, it wouldn't tell a story in the way this photo does. 

Finding beauty in the everyday gets easier when you ignore the big picture and focus on the little details instead.
