"All the trees of the field shall clap their hands": My new photography blog/ visual essay - 3 views
-
A visual essay of some of my own photography that I feel/hope conveys spiritual truth AND artistic truth. See my blog post at http://tamesequels.blogspot.com for my discussion about these two kinds of truths. All of these pieces are taken with a low resolution camera phone to try and convey that artistic beauty can be found in this world with the humblest means and mediums. This is one of my new art projects. I have always had an interest in photography, so this has been a good chance for me to experiment. I will try to post a photo on this site every day.

I like what you are doing, especially the wires photograph. I believe it ties in nicely to the sublime we talked about during Romanticism, that there is a glimpse of God in nature.

In other words, someone might alter the truth solely so they could come up with something to say, while the real truth might not be capable of being expressed so easily, it can only be observed. Some things in life are too complicated to express, but however there are going to be people who believe they can express those things, even though they cannot accurately do so.

I have read scientific journals wherein the author reports on complex interactions or relationships on the molecular level. Often I believe that they really cannot accurately do so. Perhaps scientific journals would be better if they were accompanied by videos. That would make them more like blog posts.

Well, there's snow on the mountains finally. I am one of the few people who smiles at the sight of white. I have this weird obsession with Antarctica and I want to say how greatly I adore this film I watched the other day. If you have any interest in cold places as I do, I HIGHLY recommend this beautiful film by Werner Herzog (director of Grizzly Man). Its not a simple Planet Earth documentary, but examines why all of these different people end up at the bottom of the world. And some of the under ice scuba diving is simply breathtaking. FYI, it's on instant view on netflix.

For example, it wasn’t long after astronauts and cosmonauts orbited the earth that they realized ballpoint pens would not work in space. And so some very smart people went to work solving the problem. It took thousands of hours and millions of dollars, but in the end, they developed a pen that could write anywhere, in any temperature, and on nearly any surface. But how did the astronauts and cosmonauts get along until the problem was solved? They simply used a pencil.

Let us simplify our lives a little. Let us make the changes necessary to refocus our lives on the sublime beauty of the simple, humble path of Christian discipleship—the path that leads always toward a life of meaning, gladness, and peace.
