πΏ Seeing nature come back to life after a long period of hibernation is quite invigorating. All the flower buds fight for a chance of warm sunlight and all the leaves emerge from a deep slumber. π» I love watching the little buds becoming a hotspot for all the local bees that want to pollenate the nature around them. And using a macro lens to capture that beauty is so astonishing to me, because real life can in cases like these seem so inferior to a macro photograph. β°οΈ I am in no way saying that photos are better than nature, however the way we perceive the nature around us with the naked human eye can sometimes lack the definition of a macro lens. Plus, memories fade and in a month or two, we will forget how a certain flower looked or a certain leaf fell off of a tree, but photos immortalise those moments. All we need to do is open up that awesome album of the day we want to remember and there it is - all the little souvenirs we took along the way so that we could remember the amazing trip we took to that one particular spot. π β’ πΏ I usually don't buy gifts or souvenirs for my closest friends and family because of a few different reasons. However I believe that photos are a beautiful and more unique way of capturing the essence of a place, rather than buying a trinket that will only be left forgotten on a windowsill, gathering dust. π β’ πΌ What is the most interesting souvenir that you have ever bought or made on one of your holidays?
