This has inspired me to ask my friends and create a facebook group where people are going to send me photos representing what they think the meaning of life is. I plan on putting all the photos together and displaying it somehow before the end of the month.

Thanks for the inspiration! What a wonderful idea!

Yes, thank you all. I have to admit, putting this piece together was one of the most fun and interesting so far for me. It developed so organically between the two of us. And I suppose now the world has a weird little window into how the two of us see the world. (Scary!)

Thanks, Abbie! I’m curious to know what you were expecting.

I can see how this would be a tough topic to cover. Especially in 11 photos! I like.

For the record, the graffiti (street art) in Melbourne is markedly better than the one included here (of course I understand the quality of graffiti isn’t what you were after). Melbourne street art is embraced and in many parts of the city it is legal. There are some beautiful pieces of art on brick walls all around the city.

Thanks folks! These images really affected us, figured they might do the same for others.

Great photo essay. Unique picks. I think many of these photos represent to me the meaning of life, especially #1, #2, #4, #8.
