flickr curator: abby try again.
this week’s flickr curator is one of my very favorite photographers, abby powell-thompson, aka abbytrysagain of flickr fame. abby shares her own work in her photography shop abby try again, and on her blog of the same name. i think you’ll find her lifestyle photography brings a smile to your face, and a sense of real joy in the way she is able to capture even life’s simpliest moments. i’m excited to share abby’s own inspiration through this set of her curated flickr faves.
abby has this to say about her curated set: “My flickr favorites are images I hold close to my heart. Whenever I need a boost in my mood, a bit of inspiration, or just need to calm down-I make a beeline for them! This particular set reflects my love of color, light, my love of moody shots, and my love of Japanese photographers. I also love adding shots that are a bit mysterious, or leave the onlooker guessing. I feel lucky to be able to glean inspiration on a daily basis from flickr.”

I also use flickr to stay inspired. My favorites are treasured too! :) It is also very interesting to see how a photographer has been influenced by their favorites or the other way around!
…simply elegant!
I wasn’t aware of Abby’s work, so thank you for the introduction :-)
