Biplane

This is a toy plane my son got for Christmas.

Plane-6---wm

I was cleaning the master bedroom one day and noticed this plane sitting on my nightstand.

Plane-5---wm

The reflection and lighting was pretty enough for me to grab my camera.

I love how the light softens the lines of the plane.

And when you get up close, you realize just how much detail and thought has been put into this toy.

And that makes me appreciate the simple things of life just a little more.

    So nice. And so true. Life's blessings are in the small detail of each day, not the big goal we think we need.

    I love the reflection of the plane on the nightstand. It's almost like it's flying over a lake or something.

    You have some really awesome lighting in your bedroom. That would never happen in mine. One small window. Great shots and boy does that plane have some serious detail in it.
