My Image of Beauty.







My first image of beauty is a daisy. I chose this image for it's simplicity and what I see as "true beauty". When I say "true beauty" I'm talking about the beauty that comes naturally, without things to cover up any so called "blemishes". I appreciate the fact that this image shows just one flower, because it shows that we don't have to be surrounded by others or by a particular scene in order to shine.

The second image I chose was of a black jaguar. I chose a black jaguar because they always seem to carry themselves with such pride. A pride that says "I'm not afraid of you," and "do you dare insult me?" I think that this pride is something beautiful because it shows that the person carrying it doesn't care what other people think, and they're not afraid to break away from the main stream and what others want them to be.

My third and final image is that of two people hugging. I see hugging as a gesture that can show all different emotions. It can show sadness when two people must part, or it can show happiness when two people reunite, you can comfort a person by giving them a hug. I find all of these emotions beautiful because of how natural they are. I also find this image beautiful because it represents the connection two people can have with each other. I always find it amazing when you can be apart with someone for so long, but within seconds of reuniting, the connection between you can be just as strong if not stronger than before.
