#stilllifelounge Sunday Showcase

This weeks #stilllifelounge is an ode to the lovely character Charlotte.   Thank you to @iphonehipsta for this beautiful image.

When was the last time you stopped to examine the way the light falls across the floor or how a petal connects to the stem? My guess is, it’s been awhile. When starting the still life lounge, #stilllifelounge  Jen (@ikebana_jen) and I took into account the beauty of the mundane. The objects you see everyday but pass over for cityscapes or similar grandiose shots. The lounge is a place where we slow down and take in the details. The small things the force you to take a closer look at everyday objects. Out of our tag has grown a beautiful community of photographers that like to rest in the mundane also. Every week we introduce a new subject and take the time to encourage one another. We do hope you’ll stop by and smell the roses with us soon.

Incy wincy little spider weaving wondrous web tales in my garden… Caught my attention in it’s quiet splendor to be rightfully shared in the excellent Still Life Lounge! – Marina Akwa, @iphonehipsta on IG
