I’m enjoying God’s artwork today. He makes his stuff come alive. The human race must be jealous, especially those who say “no one created that”.

OK, saw the owl last night, does that count??
Ultimate Art Thought
Gods Ways are...Different 
My favorite picture was the owl then I saw your note at the end, yes it counts!!!! God’s creation is truly stunning. How He knows each person, owl, hummingbird, flower, tree, fruit, grains of sand on the shore is just beyond me. Thank you for this, you have cheered up my afternoon!

Thank you Mandy, It was a great morning with the camera around the house. I had the same thoughts. I was just taken by how alive each species is and how unique they are in operation.

The sum of all the great artists of the world cannot even begin to hold a candle to God’s creation! (and yes, the owl counts)

So true Tim. If we reached our sense of perfection we couldn’t breathe life into our creation or give it the ability to reason, learn to obey….know God.

Once again, some beautiful shots. I always like the hummingbird pictures because I know those are very hard to get.

They are very hard to get Wayne. Every once in awhile I get it right or at least close.

I agree–the owl counts! The artwork involved in their creation includes engineering, creating a neck that can turn 270 degrees! (Yeah, it’s that far–I looked it up!)

I cannot imagine those neck muscles Nancy. I walked several circles around one that refused to fly. It’s eyes and head followed me all the way around. Once it would get so far it would spin it’s head back around to look directly at me so fast it was barely discernable. If I blinked I didn’t see it. Amazing. I finally got dizzy going in small circles around it’s tree.

Great images of God’s handiwork. I’ve been watching a hummingbird work over the salvia and hanging baskets each evening. Just amazing.

I never tire or get less amazed Robert…If we can do that with hummingbirds, worship forever in our creators presence will never be boring.

That has to be the most photogenic owl in Northern Minnesota! He/she could have their own blog.

It’s crazy David. I saw 3 different owls last night. This one was swooping down and picking nightcrawlers. I have at least 10+ owls within close proximity to our house judging by the night sounds when they start talking to one another. My imagination goes wild and I think they are conspiring to try to take me.

My favorites are the hummingbirds, aside from camera shots one can never see them like that. Stunning to see them frozen in all their created glory. Thanks for sharing the beauty!

Thanks Gary, for more shots illustrating your labor of love ability to showcase the variety and perfection of our Lord’s Creation. One wonders how easily so many fall for the deception of “There is no Creator it happened all on its own somehow some way we don’t understand so don’t look any further into it and refer to it all only as Mother Nature and appreciate it on that shallow non-thinking basis.”
His Name is Jesus

Thanks RJ.
I relate to Eric Liddell’s comment in Chariots of fire to his sister ““I believe God made me for a purpose, but he also made me fast!. When I run I feel God’s pleasure”
That’s me looking through a viewfinder framing God’s creation. A worship experience for me.

Nature is one of the greatest evidence we have of our Creator. I don’t understand how some people can see it so differently. We are surrounded by his artwork!!!

It’s like a disease of the mind Stephanie. It’s called “dontconfusemewiththefacts” Our world loves that malady as the alternative is allowing God to renew our minds.

I’m just happy that I can frame and share Linda. I see it as an investment in others, possibly where and when needed, even if just for a smile or a glint in the eye. It’s a form of worship when directed toward God. Oh, and it’s fun!!
