inspiration tuesday.

darlings,
i encourage you to explore the gems over at The Commons, a showcase of public photography archives on Flickr. right now, i am so drawn to writing history with the light, so to speak, looking into the eyes of our ancestors and seeing their stories spill out on to the paper.

What is inspiring you today, my dears?

peace. & LOVE.

always.
