Meditations of My Heart--
Photos and Thoughts on Life
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.

Very nice!
Great Sky Watch photo! I like the skyline, too! There's lots on interesting things to see.
Must be quite an experience to sit on that bench and take in the view - looks like a beautiful scene!
Carletta’s Captures.
That is a great photo looking over towards the bustling city.

I hope they will neve be put to such a test again.
Beautiful, I love New Orleans and want to revisit some time
Ahhh...New Orleans, what a place. Beautiful sky! The mighty Mississippi can be brutal. Good to see those levees holding it in. :)
Thanks for playing along. Happy Friday!

I really like how the gentle downward slope of the land seems mirrored in the upward slanting line of the clouds.
I've just moved near the Mississippi and it keeps me fascinated and snapping pictures. I can't wait to get a chance to travel up and down it some.

Lovely sky and great capture of the city skyline. We visited there years ago but never saw it from this perspective.
Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving your nice comment. BTW, I'm not ready for the cold, either!
