Looking closer…

It seems to me that when a lot of people look at something they only see what is in front of their eyes, just taking in what they can see without seeing anything more.

There’s more to see though if you really look. Look closer, get in really close and look at the detail. Sometimes you’ll see another world, beauty that a passing glance is sure to miss. Look from another angle, a different light. See it another way. Open your mind to the possibilities of what you are looking at.

It’s just a nut and bolt on an old copper cylinder that I saw in a skip. A rusting nut and bolt the colour of a rainbow. I got in close and saw the tiny pit marks of decaying metal covering its surface and for a moment it was a small world whirling through a sea of blue ice.

Look closer. New sights and experiences are everywhere.
