Photography Inspiration: Pinterest

This week I decided to post a few pictures that I have found on Pinterest that are really neat examples of cool photography.  I'm sure most of you have been on Pinterest before, but if you haven't, I highly suggest you check it out.  Not only are there great DIY's, fashion, hair and makeup tips, but there is also a pretty good variety of the visual arts as well.

This is one of my favorite photographs ever.  The bright color of the roses, contrasting with the dark, blended background emphasizes the beautiful flowers even more.  The natural shapes of the flowers with the hard contrast of the sign makes the picture even more visually interesting.   The vintage, french feel really makes this picture more than a simple photograph.

Yes, more flowers

This is another picture that I found on Pinterest.  The way the photographer focused in on the details of the main flower, and blurred everything in the background, in a mindful way, created the emphasis on the main flower.  The way the light was captured in orbs, and the blurred background gives the photo a dreamy, vintage effect.  

Finding inspiration on the internet can be hard, if you don't know where to look.  But once you find a good source, it is easy to find your desktop overflowing with hundreds of inspirational pictures.  I know that I did.  Pinterest isn't the only place to look for neat photographs.  There are hundreds of other websites out there, with thousands of pictures for you to look through.
