Dirty Rotten Thief!


(f5.0, 1/500, 50mm, ISO 160)


Sometimes I feel like a dirty rotten thief. I take the gorgeous things that God has created and steal their image and then proudly display them as my own. They should say Copyright God. He doesn't even have to put them on a blog, he just scatters them around for everyone to enjoy - for free. It just doesn't get any better than this.

This photo and probably the next two days' are wild flowers I took a couple days ago after seeing Rick's post here. I had been promising myself I would get out and take these as I drove by them several times, but seeing Rick's post was the trigger I needed to "get-er-done".  Thanks Rick.

Oh, by the way.  This post was scheduled for posting today as I am up in the mountains (Hopefully stealing more images) and don't even have cell phone coverage, let alone Internet access for the next few days.  I'll be back towards the end of the week.




Don't be shy - leave a comment or email me.  I look forward to hearing from you!

You are so right! As Ruth mentioned, I don't think He minds if we all share with each other.

This is another winner. Beautiful color, clarity, exposure and DOF. Great thoughts as well. P.S. I don't even mind the frame on this one, (wink)

Positively splendid - those words formed when I saw that image. I love your thoughts about how you/we steal images God created. So true - and he gives us so much to enjoy them with... lovely!

I don't think God will mind the free advertising. I think that's our job. The intense capture of colours coupled with the great composition ensure this photo stands out from the crowd. Great photo!
