This past month I have been awakened by the beauty seen through all of your lenses. You have brought a bounty of beauty to the One Word Project this month. Your commitment and contributions to the project are deeply appreciated and admired.
The final winner of the last Diana camera and a copy of Katherine Center’s book Everyone is Beautiful is Jackie(aka SmoothPepple) with this surprising and delightful diptych. When someone can show you the true beauty of everyday life via a laundry basket and new blooms (together in a perfect pairing) you know anything is possible and beauty can be found anywhere, if you know how to look for it.
Today, in honor of the final day of beautiful, you may either share a photo of yours that fits the bill and bids adieu to March and/or you are free to link to a favorite from our pool. The choice is yours. Whatever you choose, make it beautiful.
A special thanks to Katherine Center and Ballantine Books for sponsoring such a wonderful month of imagery. We loved every minute of it.
Yes..I have to agree. There is true magic and beauty in the simplicity and colors of the laundry basket combined with that of the spring blossoms. Congratulations!!!
Here’s one of mine…taken on a rainy end-of-March morning:

This has been a very fun project! Thanks.
Here is an image that is both beautiful and sad to me. Besides the subject matter being sad, I’m also sad because it’s the last day I’m posting an image from a photographic project. But I also think it’s one of my favorites from the project:

This is the most beautiful bird’s nest we’ve ever found – a place of growth and comfort and protection… home. the birds even added a little sparkle to their home.

CONGRATULATIONS to smoothpebble — lucky you and lucky to all the wonderful people who won a Diana!
In keeping with Katherine’s book "Everyone is Beautiful" I have chosen to focus on people rather than things for my favourites. I hope you’ll check these three out:
