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.
It doesn't get any better than this!! Absolutely gorgeous, serene, peaceful! I love the water, the bird and the beautiful skies -- not to mention a really incredibly beautiful place! Thanks for sharing the beauty!! Hope you have a lovely weekend!

serene and very beautiful, - is the bird fishing, or just soaring?
And right in the center of it all, a flying creature! (I'd like to believe it's an eagle.)
