I’ve become fascinated with this “from above” photography.
I find it mysterious. What’s the story here? A handful of seashells, a little sachet of dried lavender, handmade soap, and flowers…
As a matter of fact each item does have a story but that story is most likely meaningful only to me. And yet, when I look at these little vignettes made by strangers, I have the feeling that I’m getting a tiny glimpse into their life and I wonder what it all means. And that’s where I want to be left… wondering.

Lovely vignette! Great variety of textures here – the shells, wood, flowers. I’ll have to try this “from above” idea myself!

I really like the softness that the flowers add, against the wood. Very nice.

Suzette says
Beautiful work. I’m going to try more from above…you’ve inspired me. I love your words as well. I hadn’t thought about the people who had a hand in creating the items we cherish. I hope our appreciation somehow how finds its way to them. xo
