I Believe that Happy Girls are the Prettiest - Audrey Hepburn

I have been enthralled by Audrey Hepburn ever since I saw her in Roman Holiday. Her natural style that suited her so well, the fact that she trained to be a ballerina, as I did when I was young, before she became an on screen star and her grace, that every girl wishes to emanate. It was the anniversary of her death last week. This is a tribute to her and the light she brought to my life and the screen.

Reflecting upon the anniversary of September 11th, 2001, I stumbled across this Forbes Magazine article.

À la plage by Gray Malin

Having just come back from a weekend at the beach in The Hamptons, I was captivated by these coastal aerial shots from young US photographer Gray Malin. The 26-year-old captured these amazing images by shooting from a low flying doorless helicopter. I love the contrast between the throng of people on the beach and the bare deep blue sea. How from above the beach looks so different. How the crowds make for interesting, colourful, beautiful pictures.
