“The head of a company survived 9/11 because
His son started kindergarten.Another fellow was alive because it was
His turn to bring donuts.One woman was late because her
Alarm clock didn’t go off in time.One was late because of being stuck on the NJ Turnpike
Because of an auto accident.One of them
Missed his bus.One spilled food on her clothes and had to take
Time to change.One’s
Car wouldn’t start.One couldn’t
Get a taxi.The one that struck me was the man
Who put on a new pair of shoes that morning,
Took the various means to get to work but before.
He got there, he developed a blister on his foot.
He stopped at a drugstore to buy a Band-Aid.
That is why he is alive today..Now when I am
Stuck in traffic,
Miss an elevator,
Turn back to answer a ringing telephone…
All the little things that annoy me,
I think to myself,This is exactly where
”
I’m meant to be
At this very moment

Taken from traveling photographer Josef Hoflehner’s California portfolio. I love his use of lines within negative space and his composition uniquely captures cities in an unseen light.

Simple and modern infograph by Swedish designer Sarah Colobong.
One of the top trending tattoos of 2013: watercolor paintings. These are so incredibly and beautifully done-standing ovation the artists that produce them. Wonder what’s next for 2014.
“Soo Sunny Parks installation Unwoven Light animates Rice Gallerys expansive space, transforming it into a shimmering world of light, shadow, and brilliant color. Suspended from the walls and ceiling, thirty-seven individually sculpted units are arranged as a graceful, twisting flow of abstract form.”

Photographer Jimmy Nelson spent 3 years photographing tribes that have remained untouched by time. In a series titled ‘Before They Pass Away’ exhibits a beautifully captured and eye opening documentary. Makes you wonder what could’ve been had technology not progressed.
I wanted to witness their time-honoured traditions, join in their rituals and discover how the rest of the world is threatening to change their way of life forever. Most importantly, I wanted to create an ambitious aesthetic photographic document that would stand the test of time. A body of work that would be an irreplaceable ethnographic record of a fast disappearing world.
