7 deadly sins through the lens of a photographer

The well-known sins are vanity, greed, envy, anger, lust, sloth, and gluttony. But can we avoid yielding to these temptations?

Sloth. Researches have showed that idlers frequently live longer and work, when they want, better. Many of them even become geniuses.

Gluttony. Scientists believe that hunger is a sense which appears when the human body starts to lack energy.

Anger. It is in our genes. Its biological code is transferred from generation to generation. Since primitive society it helped to survive in competitive struggle.

Greed. From the psychological point of view it is a natural struggle for the property when this property is taken away from us.

Envy. In fact, there is an element of motivation in envy: you envy, and it pushes you to make progress.

Vanity. Psychologists think pride and self-respect are the major components of a our successful life.

Lust. What is wrong in the coition of two bodies who found each other among six billions?

All these do no harm to any person, but only on one condition – if the person knows when to stop.

So, with which glass can we measure this limit?
