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.
A little birdie told me, Although I don’t know why, That if I were to look up, Way up into the sky, I’d see some wondrous planets, The moon and sun and stars – There before my very eyes Blazed Jupiter and Mars!
What a beautiful scene. Has me thinking about my upcoming vacation at home. If I can capture that kind of tranquility, it'll be a successful staycation!
Wow, Dimple that is such a lovely place ! Stunning in its beauty ; and I specially like the angle you chose : there is a false symetry very interesting since the trees looks just like the mounts across the river... Well done !
I wanna go there and hang my itching poison eve filled feet in that beautiful blue water. That would be the best medicine for this misery I could imagine. This is one drop dead gorgeous shot. You get an award for this one. Glad you found it in your archives.

An enticing photo, Dimple. Exquisite sky, reflected in the lake along with the mountains and the trees.

That if I were to look up,
Way up into the sky,
I’d see some wondrous planets,
The moon and sun and stars –
There before my very eyes
Blazed Jupiter and Mars!

My mind just wants to be there. Actually I want to be there! It looks like the perfect spot for a few moments of meditation.
