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.
It is beautiful! Have to admit that for the most part I prefer to appreciate its beauty from a distance! I raised my family in Montana, so I do know about snow and we loved it. I'm just too old to enjoy being cold any more! Hope you have a great weekend! Stay warm!
You're a very observing person, Dimple. I haven't seen snow in ages, but even if I had, I doubt it whether I could have noticed the difference in the light reflections. Your picture is amazing!

Snow seems so foreign to me so I like seeing it.

This is a great photo...shimmering.
Looks deep, too! I'll have to look for reflections in ours this weekend. Enjoy your weekend!
Pretty darn cool!
Wow, who knew you could make such a beautiful image from snow and tire tracks!!! This is really wonderful, Dimple!
Mmmmh...
The more I see snow, the more I want some in my very own area ! Thoses reflections are really lovely, Dimple.
Oh wow, this is a fantastic shot. Love it.
Beautiful! And I wouldn't have expected to say that about something that looks so much like my own driveway right now. Time to get out the snowblower!
what a beautiful landscape you have captured
I love the light :)
Thoughtful picture, beautiful contrast. Yes, indeed, snow reflects light, unlike tire tracks. Where does that thought take us?
Beautiful! I am longing to see it again and soon!
tres reussie bravo !

Clever post, Dimple. I've never thought about it before, but it's TRUE!

Your picture is amazing!
I know it's just snow and ice but the lines and lighting give an abstract art look. Nice photo!
You have a LOT of snow and ice!
I love the shot though - great light!
