There’s not a plant or flower below, but makes Thy glories known,


And clouds arise, and tempests blow, by order from Thy throne;


While all that borrows life from Thee is ever in Thy care;


And everywhere that we can be, Thou, God art present there. (Isaac Watts)

Once again, Sarah's photography of God's wonderful creation...in things small, but beautiful in design. So much surrounds us, if we only take the time to think on God's amazing worksmanship!
Sarah captured this photo of a few wild flowers in the fields near the house. There is SO MUCH beauty in God's creation...if we would only take some time to see it! Thanks, Sarah, for taking time to capture this for us!
Sarah made this pretty flower arrangement (from Jane's garden and the field) and has some nice composition in this simple photograph on our side porch. We don't sit out there very often...due to the less than comfortable metal chairs. This is close to the door we use most often when coming and going from the house (the kitchen door). Jane's flowers have been beautiful this spring and summer!
Sarah snapped this shot near one of our old Maple trees in a late May evening. She loves photography and (I believe) has a "good eye" for capturing the beauty of God's creation.
We had a full moon on a nice evening this summer. The moon was much bigger than it seems in this picture. The summer has been unusually hot and we have had the A/C on more than I would like. The lack of rain has made the yard and field brown vs. it's typical green.
Our one peach tree brought some good fruit this year, but the squirrels and deer raided the tree after this photo and took it ALL! We had to cut down the other peach tree this year, so we're now left with one peach and one pear tree. Here's a picture of this beautiful fruit...prior to the raid.
