Stop.
Take notice of the scenery around you.
Become aware of the little pleasures we typically overlook.
All around us are intricate textures, intoxicating smells and delightful sounds.
Let these sensations take hold of you for just a moment.
Breathe in the exhilarating floral scents.
Let the harmonious songs of the birds soothe you.
Life oftentimes blinds us of these treasures…
So, just stop…
For a moment…
Stop.
With Aloha,
Lacy

Sweet image of the Banyan Tree Lucy – Your choice monochrome accentuates the textures and compistion well. I love texture shots. Trees and Water are my favourites.

Thank you! I liked how it brought out the textures as well as some of the graffiti (as much as I don’t like engraving in nature). It all tells a story of the life this tree has lived.
Thanks for your comment and for stopping by!
