It’s coming! It’s coming! I can’t believe it, after years of waiting my new camera is finally on it’s way. Ever since my system was stolen in 2000, I’ve been without a serious camera. We’ve had several good cameras, including a nice HP I took to Brazil and Alaska, but never a really serious photographic tool.

Well at long last, it’s coming. More details very soon.
Peace,
John

Hey all,

I was just taking some pictures of fall foliage in beautiful East Tennessee. I hope you enjoy the pics (I welcome comments) but I also hope you pause to reflect on the breathtaking beauty and complexity of the world around us. The image of the leaf with the sun shining through it reveals the complex tracery of veins and support structures that give it shape.

I see a leaf and marvel at the marvelous nature of God’s creation, and someone else can see the same leaf and see only a marvelous creation of nature which arose by itself after millennia of natural selection. It remains a question of faith. The leaf is self-evident, but how or why did it arise in the first place?

Anyway. Enjoy the Fall.

Hello world!

This is my new personal blog. I’ll use it to post (hopefully) deep insights, or more likely, random musing. Enjoy.
