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.
What a lovely capture, Dimple! Love the light on the water and the sunlight filtering through the trees! Yes, it does look cold!! But beautiful! Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
Lovely light and shadows Dimple. Thanks for commenting on my images. You posed a question re: is that a helicopter? in the background of the environmental portrait of the young soldier. Nope. It's a machine gun inside the bunker -- a bit hard to make out because it's behind the plane of focus.

O, another breath of spring...
What a sweet little stream. A shame it dries up in summer, but it certainly provides beautiful reflections now!

Of course, I enjoy seeing the snow but I also like the way the sunlight plays into this photo.

A beautiful capture of the light!
That's very strong sunlight. It almost looks like fire to me, as if the forest is on fire.
Very dramatic view! A superb capture, Dimple!
A lovely spot to linger in the sun light.
Une coulée d'or ... c'est très bien réussi !
It was a nice little river with just the right curve - let us hope the summer is kind to it this year :-)
It is indeed beautiful! Great shot
Glorious one!
