A few weeks ago we brought you amazing photos of heart-shaped leaves. This time we offer you a collection of gorgeous photos of heart-shaped stones.
The photos remind us that we need to stay focused on our hearts. The quality of a person depends on the quality of his/her heart. Our actions spring from who and what we are. And the heart is the source of our being. That is why it is so important that our heart be set on authentic values.

It was raining when I began collecting these photos. The rain started as a calm shower and slowly ascended into a heavy downpour. I heard some distant thunder and the sound of people hurrying up. I know it's kind of poetic, considering that here I was collecting photos of rain drops.
I love the sound of rain hitting the ground and rooftops. I love it so much that I downloaded ambient rain sound so I could listen to rain regardless of the weather. My mother used to tell me that when it rains ...

The following photos hold a very special place in my heart. I took some of them as far back as 2004 and as recently as less than a week ago. They remind me of the places I've visited, the people I've met along the way and the lessons I've learned.
They've recently found their way out of my hard disk unto Flickr as I experimented on putting inspirational quotes on them. The lines seem to work so I uploaded ten of them, so far. I will upload more in the coming days.

When my mama smiles when she tastes her own work I am one hundred percent sure that she's cooked something tasty. She puts all her love into her cooking that I sometimes see the food smiling. I tried to look for photos of smiling viands on Flickr but I haven't found one (well, I think only my mother can make food smile). I found smiling fruits instead.
I hope you will enjoy the following 10 charming photos of fruits that smile. And I also hope that they will inspire you to produce works that...

When we think of leaves we don't normally think of the extraordinary. Leaves are so ubiquitous and uniform that they don't usually attract our attention. Flowers do, but not leaves.
However the following photos will persuade you to see leaves on a different, more beautiful light. Nature has shaped these leaves in a way that will make you think of love, truth and beauty. These leaves can teach us a valuable lesson - to always open our hearts, alert our senses and notice the little things even ...

Taking photographs is more than pointing and clicking with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the memories of those you love, the faith that you live, the principles that you follow, the songs that you sing.
To some, photography is an act of capturing the moment. To others, an act of meditation and prayer. There are also those who see photography as an act showing who we truly are.
Whatever it is you think of photography, here's ten quotes that will make you love photography...

Watching paintings come to life is an immersive experience. I've seen a good number of artists paint live and the experience always left a deep impression on me.
The following is a collection of seven videos showing artists paint Jesus live. What these videos show us is that painting can be a deeply spiritual experience and that prayer can be a colorful and creative process too.
All the paintings featured in the videos are created in real time. You'll see the process from start to finish -...

Jesus has always been a major subject of art. The artistic depictions of Jesus are often based on the narratives in the Bible. From oil paintings to spray-paint graffitis, Jesus has been depicted in many different media.
The following is a roundup of 20 mindblowing Jesus-themed graffiti art designs I found on Flickr. What I particularly like about these works of art is their colorful designs and creative portrayal of Jesus.
