Awestruck | Nature Photography Inspiration

“No synonym for God is so perfect as Beauty. Whether as seen carving the lines of the mountains with glaciers, or gathering matter into stars, or planning the movements of water, or gardening – still all is Beauty!”
— John Muir

We have such a beautiful Father, and His creation displays just how beautiful He really is! I am in love with capturing the beauty of God’s creation through the lens of my camera. For me, the mountains display the beauty of the Father in such a magnificent way. Their mighty peaks exhibit the strength and majesty of our King. When I look upon their splendor, I am overwhelmed with awestruck-wonder. I cannot help but fall more in love with my Creator every time I look upon the mountain tops. The mountains stand, with their peaks pointing heavenward — ushering all glory and honor to the One who formed them. The mountains themselves worship His name. When I look upon them, I cannot help but release my praise so that I may join the mountains in declaring the beauty of our God!

The following pictures are a collection of photographs that I have taken over the last year. Each one displays the beauty of our Father’s creation. I hope you enjoy these photographs as you revel in the magnificence of our King.

“Long, blue, spiky-edged shadows crept out across the snow-fields, while a rosy glow, at first scarce discernible, gradually deepened and suffused every mountain-top, flushing the glaciers and the harsh crags above them. This was the alpenglow, to me the most impressive of all the terrestrial manifestations of God. At the touch of this divine light, the mountains seemed to kindle to a rapt, religious consciousness, and stood hushed like devout worshippers waiting to be blessed.”
