beautiful

I was inspired yesterday to take a walk with my camera after work. 

It was wet and there was a slight chill in the air.

I didn't mind though. I just kept snapping pictures here and there. Grabbing up the splendor of what God has created. It's amazing to look through the lens and see such beauty. The beauty that was hidden to me before I first lifted the camera to my face.

I imagine this is a often discussed subject. Things that I didn't notice before the camera, I now notice with the camera. I'm forever looking at things saying "That's beautiful, it would make a great picture". I've discussed this very subject here.  I don't know why I didn't notice everything before.  I guess I just didn't stop and look before, where now I stop and look for a shot.  Then I see it.

It amazes me that God made the earth so beautiful. He wanted us to see the beauty and enjoy it. I love to think about this. These pictures were taken on a dreary day in January when everything was wet and cold. Nobody was around enjoying the day or the beauty, but it was still there,

just in case someone wanted to enjoy it.
Here's a little bit of Natural texture for Texture Thursday:



Thanks for stopping in!
