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.

That's a great refection capture. Keep on clicking.
That's an intriguing reflection,because the right sign does not have the letters in the middle!
Love it!!!! Stop, that's what we all need to do once and awhile and take stock of who we are and where we are going. Love the Reflection shot from last week--so pretty. Have a nice weekend. Mickie

Sorry, as soon as I saw you pic I had the song in mind... And I hate you, now, I'm going to have it all day in my mind... ;)
BUT...
That is a very nice shot, though...
:D
Haha! Well done! April, fooling around :)
I love the reflective photo. NEATO!
Thanks for stopping by, Louise. Yes, the picture is mine. Surreal, isn't it. I took it on a tour of Norway in 2009...the bus stopped to let us off for this beautiful photo op. Norway is such a splendid country...I don't disagree with the people who say it's the most beautiful country in the world.
Haha! This is fun, Dimple!
