Reflections of Creation

One of the greatest things that God has given humans is the ability to see beauty in the world around us. I have never noticed my dog stop and stare at the beauty of a forest or the incredible colors of a sunset, but these things have the ability to stop me in my tracks in wonder and awe. This website is my attempt to capture some of the beauty and glory of an indescribable God by capturing reflections of Him that I see in His creation.

dogs and cars

Alison loves this picture (even though the dog's not really in focus), so I'm putting this up for her. After a talking with my sister this weekend, I thought I'd try something a little different. I vignetted this picture, or darkened the corners. I also did some raw picture adjusting which simply means the camera did not do the processing, and I changed the camera's settings on the computer instead of the camera. I slightly increased the saturation and sharpened this picture as much as I could within the confines of what the camera can do. Since it was a cloudy day, I also changed my white balance to represent that which in turn made these colors pop.




And for absolutely no reason at all, here's a bonus picture for you. I didn't do anything on this one, and I just let the camera decide everything. That may be a good idea since my brilliant
decision was to stand in front of these two when they have a busted steering wheel :-)

hmmm...then again...it may not ever be a good idea to stand in front of these two in a car...

    Aww, thanks for posting that. I think it's a sweet picture.

    ...And Jacque and I weren't too smart, either--we got in the broken-steering wheel car even after the young ones were in it. =)

the most important part of this website

I enjoy photography and I always find myself wanting more time to be outside with a camera. The idea of posting my pictures was born out of the love for my wife, Alison (alisonbryantwrites.com), who hates it when I do not take my days off. This website, reflections of creation, is a way to force me to get out of the office from time to time and putting me outside where I love to be. While a creative outlet for me, I hope this is an encouraging site for you, and one which helps point you to the Creator of all this beauty around us. God is so much bigger and amazing than we could ever imagine, and He loves you and me! What an amazing thought! He loves us so much that He was even willing to let His son, Jesus, die as a sacrifice for us. That fact is more beautiful than any picture you will see on this website. I hope you know Jesus, but if you do not, please email me or go to www.needHim.org. Thanks again for coming and stop by again soon.
