The purpose of my photography is not just to display my work, but to give glory to the true Artist…GOD.

 

If there were only one photograph I could take it would be the one of my daughter on the swing, below! In my opinion its my absolute personal best!

 

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

 

In Genesis 1:2, God’s word describes our planet as “formless and empty”, just like a blank canvas to an artist. Throughout the chapter we see how God spoke everything into existence, from the smallest insect to the stars in the heavens.

 

Creation itself is a mirror; reflecting God's glory. It reveals God through its beauty and complexity, giving HIM glory in the process and testifying of His power and the love that He has for us.

  

Psalm 139:14

I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;

Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well.

I've made Explore only 19 times, but like "asawaa" said "To get photos on EXPLORE is one thing, but to see a photo that is a delight to the eyes is a wonderful thing."

 

My favorite spot for taking pictures is Fairchild Botanical Gardens in Miami. Just beautiful!
