The World of XPILAR - PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY AND ART CONTEST WEEK #024 - The Beauty and the Flower [ENG/ESP]
"Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it."
Confucius
The Beauty and the Flower
Beauty is not something that is always seen. We have often wondered from where beauty arises. Does it come from the objects themselves, from the thing that perceives them, or the relationship between the two?
Beauty is to some degree subjective, and it’s important that we don’t take everyone else’s opinion at face value. We should look to discover what we find truly beautiful, whether that be in art, in people, or in nature.
I took this photograph a few years ago, in a sunflower field that was located next to the "General José Antonio Páez" Highway, a few kilometers from the twin cities of Acarigua and Araure in the state of Portuguesa, in an area called La Flecha (The Arrow). I modified the original image using the editing tools offered by the PicsArt application that I downloaded to my mobile phone.
La belleza no es algo que se ve siempre. A menudo nos hemos preguntado de dónde surge la belleza. ¿Viene de los objetos mismos, de la cosa que los percibe, o de la relación entre los dos?
La belleza es hasta cierto punto subjetiva, y es importante que no tomemos la opinión de los demás al pie de la letra. Debemos buscarla para descubrir lo que encontramos realmente hermoso, ya sea en el arte, en las personas o en la naturaleza.
Esta fotografía la tomé unos años atrás, en un sembradío de girasoles que se encontraba ubicado a un costado de la Autopista General José Antonio Páez, a unos pocos kilómetros de las ciudades gemelas de Acarigua y Araure en el estado Portuguesa, en un sector denominado La Flecha. La imagen original la modifiqué haciendo uso de las herramientas de edición que ofrece la aplicación PicsArt que descargué en mi teléfono móvil.
