Abstract Nature




Throughout our day to day lives there are often things that are overlooked in nature that provide beauty. This beauty is something that can be seen if one takes a step back, bends down to look from a different angle, or gets a bird's eye view of a situation. In the two photos above the pictures are taken of water and snow on the windshield of my car. When magnified, the droplets of water in the lower right-hand corner of the first image display reflections of me taking this photo. The idea on focusing in on something small like a rain drop displays something that often goes without being seen. For me the second image depicts the universe, with asteroids moving about through space. While others may look at these pictures and have a different interpretation, the possibilities are endless when looking at nature in a new way. While the idea of looking at something from a different vantage point is something that seems easy, there are many things that go unseen due to the hustle and bustle of our daily routines. Whether it be looking at rain and snow on your windshield, or looking through a waterfall, I challenge everyone to go out in nature and find something majestic that you may not have seen before.
