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.
Lovely blue sky and bright reflection on the water. There is traffic everywhere these days and we spend a lot of time sitting and waiting. Maybe we are learning patience from this common ordeal! Have a great weekend. Mickie :)
Oh, now....what a beautiful scene to take in and then, I don't know how I'd feel about stopping on a bridge in traffic {I tend to get scaredy sometimes}.
What a gorgeous day you had! Love the light on the water and such lovely, clear blue skies! Marvelous captures, Dimple! Hope you have a lovely weekend!
Sweeping sky, sparkling waters...glad you had your camera with you. I'll bet you always travel with it. I'm so forgetful about mine, leaving it at home, seeing something, and wishing I had it...
How beautiful, I think I'd almost wish for traffic to stop so that I could stop and enjoy.

Always nice when the traffic stops to allow you to photograph the scenery! Beautiful shots.

And you were able to catch those lovely gleaming shots!
I'm glad it stopped for us to see.
The light sparkling on the water is gorgeous and the little boat is the icing on the cake.
Good thing you had to stop or maybe we wouldn't have seen these photos!
You definitely made the most of a bad traffic situation. Very nice captures. Have a great week-end.

You were lucky the traffic stopped! NICE photos, Dimple!
Glad you were stopped, what a lovley view from the bridge. Happy skywatching and have a wonderful weekend!
If you have to get stopped anywhere that seems like a most excellent spot for it to happen.
Oh wow this is beautiful! The reflection on the water looks like tiny diamonds sprinkled from above. Love your photos! Happy weekend!

I wouldn't mind be stopped on the bridge with a view like that! Love the sparkling water.
the bridge I cross has very high rails so I can't get scenes in traffic
I love yours
the light on the water is like diamonds
The first and last photos display a dream-like view of stunning reflection of light in water.
Well done, Dimple!
Just in time for you to take these amazing shots - delightful.

You took great advantage of the stopped traffic! What a beautiful scene to enjoy while waiting to cross the bridge.
What a beautiful place! I love look of the reflected sun just like diamonds on the water.
Glad you stopped. Even better you saw and pulled the sparkling light into your camera. Give me some light! Yep, you done it.
How lovely and serene...
What a beautiful spot to be stopped.
The water sparkles!
lovely - do you sometimes get the urge to just get out of your car and walk away? I do..! happy Sunday!
Now THAT'S when you don't mind being in bumper-to-bumper traffic! I love the reflections!
Not all traffic is bad... now we all got to see the diamonds twinkle on the water... Lovely!
Dreamy and beautiful.
When I see the photos like this, I want to be a bird. Or I was, some lives ago, and just remember the feeling. Thank you for that memories))
