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.

Hmmm I wouldn't mind having that view myself, right from the ground!
Flimsy reeds blowing in the wind...lovely picture, fun perspective!
The plant life reaches to heaven for their sunlight, their food. They look wonderful in a monochrome, their shape and beauty apparent...
Your are right. It is a wonderful feeling to an artist of photographer when everything is so perfect right before your eyes.
This is very nice in black and white, Dimple. It has a rich, silvery feeling. :)
Great angle - makes a super black and white pic.
Great lovely capture!
Looking at the sky
Gorgeous shapes reaching into the sky! The monochrome highlights the variety of tones!
These cattails look so majestic! The whole composition of cattails and the sky turn the picture into something very grand.
I do so agree! Such clear light + strong plant patterns = a fine photo!
The contrast is perfect!
love this shot . . .
Beatyful picture...Love it...
A nice almost-abstraction :-)

Cattails are great, I love the subject. They will soon 'foof', which is my favorite.
