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.
Simple but yet so interesting and nice. Did you know the sugar things have the colors of the packages in a particular order. I did not know that until last summer. The order is for the hard of sight people so they will know where to find the type they want. Of course, if the container is turned they might get a reverse order. Anyway, it is a neat fact I learned about at a lovely restaurant. genie
I love reflections too. I'd have to suggest the restauant put a little Splenda in the "sugar" container. I have to carry my own. I guess it is too expensive, but it will soon be 'generic' I think.

Your chase of reflection lead you to the strangest places, dear Dimple... Those one are sweet... ;)
I like these soft reflections:-)
Ya gotta do what ya gotta do.
You find interesting reflections everywhere Dimple. Leaving home without a camera is unthinkable.
Makes me want to ask my husband to take me out to dinner. Nothing like "being served". Have a lovely weekend. Mickie ;)
Good eye n good shot!
Hey, we find them where we can and I love these -- means you got to go out to eat!! That's always fun! Hope you have a great weekend, Dimple!

Happy weekend!
Praise and thanks to the Lord! That's a great reminder to all of us!

I never would have thought of that! Cool idea, Dimple!
I know what you mean -- it is fun to see reflections from unexpected places like this one.
Your B&W flowers in the post below are wonderful.
You live in a world of reflection~~inside and out.
This makes me want to go out for breakfast--and take my camera! Fantastic!
Simple and ordinary things can be seen in a new light through the eyes of a creative photographer!
SEEING RED
A man who was out of his head
Was claiming he always saw red.
He saw it all day,
At work and at play,
And saw it at night while in bed.
