These words struck a chord: "We want something else which can hardly be put into words – to be united with the beauty we see, to pass into it, to receive it into ourselves, to bathe in it, to become part of it." <br /><br />I think maybe that's one of the reasons I keep snapping photos of beautiful things I see...in some way those pixels on the memory card in my camera, then translated into my computer, the web, wherever, are a sort of ownership. We are indeed designed to crave beauty and admire it and want to be immersed in and part of it.
