Welcome to my Seeking Beauty in Ordinary photography blog. I am Poland based fine art photographer, graphic designer & web designer. For almost 20 years, I used to work as an Art and English teacher at all school levels. As a designer working on commission, the needs and tastes of my clients are priority. While photography is my way of self-expression, my true love and passion. I took it up in 2009 and each day I’ve been learning something new about photography, technique, gear, etc. Looking at the world through the lens made me see everything in a sharper way, more consciously. I have learnt to notice beauty in things commonly perceived as ugly, ordinary as well as I have learnt to sense some mystic energy surrounding me each day.

I hope you enjoy my through-the-lens vision of a world I share with you on this site and find my Art language tips useful. Your comments are an invaluable feedback to me.For more information about my work visit my Painted with Light website. Contact with via my BEHANCE Pro Site.

Looking for Meaning in Life - Isolated People in a Crazy World

Isolated People, Fine Art Photography by Danuta Antas, 2010
Today being in a mood  for sad reflections on human nature and our crazy life on this world, posting one of my poems and photographs I did in 2010.


The Amusement Park

In the amusement park,
On the carousel of life
Turning at a dizzying pace,
You are searching happy faces in vain.

Everyone in a rat race,
More and more,
Faster and faster.
The small amusement park
Is swarming with clowns,
trying to entertain those
Who have no reason to laugh.

Makeup faces, Mask faces.
They express everything but not themselves.
True feelings, thoughts and desires
So well hidden,
That you can’t notice them anymore.

In the curved mirror of illusion
We build our “happiness”.
