Be Inspired - Sounds

Words to Inspire

“All of nature begins to whisper its secrets to us through its sounds. Sounds that were previously incomprehensible to our soul now become the meaningful language of nature.”
Rudolf Steiner

Idea to Inspire

With all the distractions throughout our day, it's the simplest sounds of an ordinary day that we take for granted.

I recently enjoyed a book called 100 Sounds to See by Marsha Engle. In this wonderful book Marsha shares her story of how she is slowly losing her hearing, and how she collaborated with photographer William Huber to capture ordinary sounds in stunning photographs.

Over the next month the Be Inspired collection is going to feature photographs of ordinary sounds in photography.

Check out all the stunning photography in this wonderful book.

This Flickr collection is inspired by beautiful sounds you can find outside.
