Inspiration in Real Life
This past weekend my wife and I were in Mexico City, where I was photographing a wedding for some friends of ours that we met during a missions trip a couple of years ago.
On our way home we spent a couple of hours in the Mexico City International Airport. In the middle of one of the largest cities in the world, filled with both poverty and wealth, sits one of the busiest airports on Earth.
To my surprise, in of one of the biggest and most impoverished cities in the world I discovered beautiful architecture in the ceiling of an airport. I was impressed by the design and imagination that was used in the creation of what in most buildings is a boring necessity of infrastructure. With 238 days a year of clear skys the Mexico City International Airport is filled with light by the 1000’s of skylights that hang above the heads of weary passengers headed to their temporary or permanent destinations. We find beauty where we least expect it and are often inspired by things that have no connection to our passions or work.
Are you looking for inspiration in the every day? Are you allowing God to show you his magnificence in the inanimate?
