The Pearl

I took this photo originally for my photography class with Faith. I was so happy with the way that it turned out that I wanted to share it for Macro Today. I thought very seriously about cropping the photo down, but I felt like it took away from vast simplicity of the pearl on the great big table. Me, being all philosophical and what-not, felt it represented us as individuals. We are all small in the grand scheme of things…there is someone much bigger in control. That’s what this photo represents to me. The simple beauty within us that is held in the hands of someone mightier.
