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.

a snowy outlook

I'm sorry about missing yesterday; I just forgot. Since I will be seeing snow in a week, I thought I'd put up a snow post. Next Wednesday, I'll be in Juneau who had a big avalanche last week. They lost part of their hydroelectric power grid and are going to have to rely on diesel generators for power for the next two to three months. Since their utility bills are expected to quintuple over that time, I hope that we'll all be praying for them.

Also, today is one of the days that I have crossed over to the dark side: I did some work on this picture before posting it. I did some high pass sharpening and some brightening of edges and added a little grain as well to give the sky some texture. I think it turned out well, but I don't think I'll make a habit out of altering pictures like that.

    the dark side? LOL! The photo is gorgeous, but I am sure that it was before you messed with it too.

    I had no idea about Juneau...I haven't heard anything about that...gotta love our media.

    yeah, isn't it great when a state capital is possibly a disaster area and our news never covers it?

    they're meeting today to decide if it's a disaster area or not (probably not since total losses with fuel, etc are expected to be around $25-30 million)

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.
