There are two ways of spreading light:
to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.

to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.
Edith Wharton
The mid-day sun is too much for most eyes;
one is dazzled even with its reflection.
Be careful that too broad and high an aim does not
paralyze your effort and clog your springs of action.
Learned Hand
Look at your feet. You are standing in the sky.
When we think of the sky, we tend to look up,
but the sky actually begins at the earth.
Diane Ackerman
The object of reflection is invariably
the discovery of something satisfying to the mind
which was not there at the beginning of the search.

Those are absolutely amazing pictures. Truly love the last one with the treeline in the sky.
ReplyDeleteToday I reflect on the passing of a loved one and your post today was perfect. I see a picture on earth side and a picture on heaven side. We walk on the earth side until God decides we must cross over. Both sides of the refection are peaceful and beautiful. I hope my loved now can see his reflection from above and know how beautiful he is.
Thank you for doing this post today.

ReplyDeleteVery nice photos. I always enjoy reflections, but they seem extra special when there is fall foliage involved for some reason.
ReplyDeleteAwesome reflections :)
