Through the Lens of Beauty

Through photography, I uncover hidden gems, seeing beyond the ordinary or chaotic to find the extraordinary, transforming both my art and perspective on life.

Through the Lens of Beauty (Poem)

No place is ugly, this I’ve learned,
A truth within my soul, it burned.
For beauty waits in every space,
A hidden gem in time and place.

The stormy coast with its rugged face,
Its wild embrace, a fierce grace.
The crowded streets, their chaos loud,
A symphony within the crowd.

Forgotten villages, quiet, still,
A charm that whispers on the hill.
Each holds a story, raw and true,
Moments painted in a timeless hue.

Through my lens, the world unfolds,
In every scene, a tale retold.
Ordinary fades, and I can see,
The extraordinary waiting for me.
