Our God is good...he didn't have to give us the tremendous, stunning beauty of his creation to enjoy, but he did! I'm very thankful to have had an opportunity to get out a few times in this past year, and to catch just a little bit of God's workmanship with my camera. I hope you enjoy these favorites of mine from 2011!

O Lord my God, When I in awesome wonder,
Consider all the works Thy Hands have made;
I see the stars, I hear the mighty thunder,
Thy power throughout the universe displayed.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
(Hymn, How Great Thou Art, Carl Gustav Boberg, 1885;
English translation by Stuart K. Hine, 1949)
