Life’s Little Moments
After the sunset.

Inspiration, iPhone, Life's Little Moments, PrintThis was taken the day leading up to the evening before our power was restored, following the infamous Toronto Ice Storm.
We were outside, chipping away at the ice in front of our house, and the sun had finally made an appearance that day.
It was late afternoon and the light was fantastic.
We had no idea how the night would go for us, as the temperature inside our house was almost as low as outside.
But amidst the struggle and fear, there was beauty to be found.
It’s always the case.
I have to remind myself of that constantly.

From outside, faint light enters and simultaneously recedes.
Inside, souls commingle.
Interweave.

Guest Post, Inspiration, Life's Little MomentsEditor’s Note: I have a great affinity for Luiz‘s work. He skillfully captures his Muse — his daughter — in the midst of what I like to call Life’s Little Moments, and he does it with great sensitivity. Luiz is a true artist and I feel privileged to present his work here today.

“May I collaborate with your blog and your “little” and precious community (I guess not so little as you’ve stated).
During my brief and so wanted moments that I can spend with my daughter (as you know she doesn’t live with me) I try to capture what I see and feel. Sometimes I’m lucky enough to the get one moment, a record, that will left into my hearth.
In the last few months I could take some photos that, just by chance, can somehow be as part of a series:
Lines and frames. Not a really novelty. But it just what is… Lines and frames…
Hope you enjoy them!
Thank you so much for the honour!! — again. 🙂 “

Pure Honey.
Inspiration, Leica 24mm Summilux ASPH f/1.4, Life's Little Moments, Portrait, Teaching pointA simple image of our family pet, Honey.
A cliché sort of a thing to do, taking a photo of your pet (in photography circles anyway).
Yet this image illustrates perfectly why I hold the Leica M9 in such high regard: the rendering here is exquisite — the tonal gradations are so pleasing that we are left with the sweet illusion of viewing a live scene, as opposed to a static photograph.
It’s pure honey.
