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.

Some things just don't need colour, a lovely shot Louise.
I don't know what it's called either but it is pretty. The B & W brings out it's features.
Lovely shot of the delicate flowers.
So delicately lovely!
Dimple, this is beautiful. I have a similar shot with a single white flower and you have inspired me to post for next week.
and so lovely in black and white Louise...tender and delicate, each blossom.
I don`t know either, but it does look nice.
It's as if they are stretching their heads to hear something they didn't quite catch just now.
I'm in a black-and-white mood this weekend myself :)... refurbishing my kitchen tool drawer...taking out the ugly things and buying new b & w pieces :) Does that mean I have too much time on my hands?
Beautiful flower Louise, perfect in black and white. I really like how you put the actual measurements in the macro..that's a great idea because if you don't already know the flower it's hard to tell.
It's sheer delight when you spot an unexpected dainty flower... and this macro is pleasing in monochrome, Dimple.
Thanks for joining us on WEF with this lovely B/W Shot! :) LG Tina
I should have known you would have found {and photographed!} such a tiny flower!
Wonder what it is???
Who cares!
Very cool.
I'd love to know what color it is so I could track it down. Sweet shot.
Very nice!
Now Dimple let me ask you...do you have the same trouble as I do switching to black and white with a beautiful flower? I can photograph everything else and not miss the colors...except flowers!
Still, I get over it enough to find the forms and textures fascinating.
