Bryce Canyon Before Sunset - This truly is God's country. Staring into the valley below, one can feel the significance of insignificance; that we are just one tiny bit of matter that encompasses the universe. Our planet offers such treasures and places like Bryce show us God's art. As artists, it is our duty to preserve these treasures for all humanity. There are so many people in the world that will never set their eyes on these magnificent landscapes. It is our duty as nature photographers to bring it to them.

In God's Country

(Bono)

 

Desert sky

Dream beneath the desert sky

The rivers run but soon run dry

We need new dreams tonight

 

Desert rose

Dreamed I saw a desert rose

Dress torn in ribbons and in bows

Like a siren she calls to me

 

Sleep comes like a drug

In God's Country

Sad eyes, crooked crosses

In God's Country

 

Set me alight

We'll punch a hole right through the night

Everyday the dreamers die

See what's on the other side

 

She is liberty

And she comes to rescue me

Hope, faith, her vanity

The greatest gift is gold

 

Sleep comes like a drug

In God's Country

Sad eyes, crooked crosses

In God's Country

 

Naked flame

She stands with a naked flame

I stand with the sons of Cain

Burned by the fire of love

Burned by the fire of love
