Just Looking – the Art of Noticing @wearejustlooking.org · 27/10/2025A trio of ginkgo trees, noticed by Ana (@ana___g on IG). A reminder of how our designs shape the more-than-human world. “The middle one turns golden first because it’s not blocked by buildings. I had to stop and rub my eyes a bit.” #wearejustlooking #artofnoticing #ginkgotrees 020

Just Looking – the Art of Noticing @wearejustlooking.org · 10/10/2025The big arcs in the sky are rare, but smaller ones show up in the most unexpected places — if we pause to notice them. Once you’ve seen one, you’ll start seeing more (the Baader-Meinhof phenomenon at play). Tag us with your noticings — we’d love to share them. #wearejustlooking #artofnoticing 010
Just Looking – the Art of Noticing @wearejustlooking.org · 07/10/2025A quiet corner in Bruges.

Just Looking is about noticing what we might otherwise overlook. Tag @wearejustlooking to share your noticings. #artofnoticing 000

Just Looking – the Art of Noticing @wearejustlooking.org · 22/09/2025Unplanned beauty. ✨ Thanks to Yasumi (@super_ordinarylife on IG) for noticing what’s often seen as rubbish: “Twigs, leaves, flowers still loud with colour.

Just Looking – the Art of Noticing @wearejustlooking.org · 12/12/2024We often look for focus and clarity in photography and in life. So much so that our technology does it automatically for us.
