We try all sorts of ways to reach the heights of beauty. Beauty to create and beautiful creations to look upon with awe. I wonder how DeVinci and the other great masters gained their sense of inspiration. Was it the mechanics of the human body? Possibly the surroundings they lived with, such as daily life. Was it the witnessing of the seasons passing by? The vastness of the universe as stars were streaking into the night sky. Could you image if they had our technology at their finger tips? For those of us who are the modern day creative souls; photography has given us the ability to capture moments frozen in time. With moments that can be written about in all sorts of ways, music,television,film and all types of art. Recently I took a photograph last weekend of the most beautiful Autumn sky. To me it spoke volumes of the glory that human beings can witness. I could not take my eyes off of this and thinking nothing compares to the divine creator. I believe miracles are shown to us everyday, all we need to do is stop and take that moment away from this sometimes crazy world. (c) Mary Anne Abdo
