A Picture's Worth?
While hunting for travel-related photographs online in class, I came across a stunning website. According to their website, Diane Cook and Len Jenshel met in 1979, married in 1983 and started an amazing career of photographic collaboration in 1991. They turn anything they get their eyes on into a breathtaking photographic piece. I started looking on their website for their travel photos but was hooked in no time to looking at their pictures of anything and everything: even photos of golf courses are beautiful (and usually the only thing I find beautiful about a golf course is the nineteenth hole, if you're picking up what I'm putting down, my friend).
If I couldn't write, I think I'd like to be somewhat talented in another art form. Stick figures are my limit when it comes to drawing, elephants with paint brushes in their trunks do a better job than me, and my guitar career ended abruptly when I broke a string six days into owning one. I never had it replaced and it was a gift on my sixteenth birthday so I think you can see where I'm going with this one. These two photographers are blessed in making what seems mundane and ordinary into a work of art, and their photographs from around the world are absolutely surreal.
I may be using a plethora of positive adjectives here, but once you get a look at them you will agree. People say a picture is worth a thousand words. With this post, I should be exempt from all the rest this quarter because these images will astound you.
