Not Every Photo Has To Tell A Story

"People say sometimes that Beauty is superficial. 
That may be so. But at least it is not so superficial as Thought is. 
To me, Beauty is the wonder of wonders. 
It is only shallow people who do not judge by appearances. 
The true mystery of the world is the visible, not the invisible." — Oscar Wilde

It's okay to take photographs that just interest us, photos of what we like, 
just for the fun of it... without any thought of deeper purpose.





Thanks for looking,

Casey

Thank you Arronax,,,
