Credit Where It Is Due
Credit Where It is Due
I like to make photographs, and I enjoy being praised for what I have done. But God teaches a different attitude, one of thankfulness and humility. He pointed that out to me recently. I DO NOT MAKE THESE PHOTOGRAPHS ALONE. I didn't create the light, or the technology which makes photography possible. I didn't buy my camera, it was a gift from my husband. I didn't give myself the ability to see through the camera in order to make an image which others find pleasing. It is right to use what I have been given to the best of my ability, but it is wrong to take credit for what I have not done. God made the light, the elements which are used to manufacture the camera, and the world from which these images come. He has given me gifts: people to teach me, eyes to see with, and a brain to process information. I am thankful for these gifts. He deserves all the praise, not I.

This is stunning, almost magical.
I always get a little rush of excitment when I see the sun's rays like that - I think they're one of the most beautiful sights on earth!
The more I look at the photos, the more I see! Beautiful shot!
I was hoping that you had another bench today. . .
Splendid photo! Have a great weekend!
Ideed you have a sky - a gorgeous one.
Wow! What a lovely, swirling-violet sunset!
What a view - if that's how it looks like where you park I'm surprised you ever leave that spot in the mornings.
Precious. I love sunsets. Blessings.

Stunning - so good you had your camera with you. The gold is plenty in the image - the sun rays are very dramatic! Beautiful!
