    2. ...you run into one of these beautiful photographs.

    3. You pause your scroll for a sec, and stare.

    4. And you think to yourself...

    6. "That must be a picture of a still-life painting in a museum somewhere."

    7. But you're wrong.

    25. Or the vase brings out the best of the flowers.

    27. ...ever after.
