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.
Fantastic shots! The trade off to living in north Florida is that I don't get to see much of a fall change, though we have some sort of Maple (I think) in the front yard which I adore. It is the only leaf change I get around here.
My favorite is the fourth from the top. Belongs on a postcard! Fall has always been a reminder to me of the seasonal nature of life. I think change is hard not see in this season ... even when we might otherwise miss it.

Wonderful leaf shots! Really brings home the meaning of Fall.
Such beautiful colours of Autumn. Great shots.
I'm curious: Did you really catch that yellow leaf in mid-flight or is it caught in an invisible spider's web?

Autumn's palette is new each day! I enjoyed seeing YOUR colors.
Beautiful leaves, Dimple! Autumn is fading here in Ontario.
the 'some have let go' shot is pure magic!!
So sad to see them let go...but, I guess, that's just the natural way...
Oh!! So gorgeous! Beautiful colors and I especially fancy the leaf drifting away.. :)
Now, just today, I discovered that all the leaves have gone.. The trees are naked.. bare.. :(
But... then we have to wait for the snow.. :)

Hope you are doing well.

I like the way you have caught leaves mid fight.
I think the second photo has really lovely colours in it.
