Inspiration Photos

The photo here is taken from NASA's archives, and what I love about it is how it reminds me just how important it is to take a step back sometimes. Up close we lose so much detail about how extraordinary this planet really is, but when we take a step back (or a few thousand) we can see the whole picture, a picture that will leave many of us in awe. Ever since I was a kid I had a love for outer space, and still do. I remember looking at photos like these and having this urge to see everything this universe has to offer.

This photo is from the website myyellowstone.com, and serves as an inspiration as it encompasses everything I love about landscape photography. There's a simplicity in nature that's lost on us in the suburban and metropolis world we live in. The reason I first picked up photography as a hobby was when I discovered how effortlessy you can capture the beauty of the world for others to see.
