Optical Illusions

Once in a while, you just come up with a photo that is an optical illusion. I recently made the wedding cake for a friend and one of the pictures I took of it looks like it is ready to fall over.

In actuality, the cake was just fine although shortly before, someone had taken it upon themselves to put their own flowers on the cake.


Such meddling! Needless to say, I was not happy with their "additions" to the cake I had made and immediately set out to provide first aid. In the end, the cake was beautiful - especially with the dimmed lights to "hide" little flaws. And the bride and groom were delighted both with the look of the cake as well as the taste. Now that's success!

Mist on the Water


There is something about wings that just fascinate me. Maybe it is because they remind me of angels. This is a close-up of a seagull from the ferry that takes you from Bremerton, WA to Seattle. I've made that trip twice and was enthralled both times with the experience.

The second time, it was early morning with thick fog. As the sun came up, the fog slowly burned off and the pictures were quite mysterious with sunlight only occasionally shining through on the water.


As we came close to the shoreline, the fall foliage peeped through the morning mist.


How can anyone say there is no God? This could never exist out of pure chance.

Inspired Word

First of all, I have to admit that this isn't my photo, but my husband's - taken with an inexpensive Sony point and shoot at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. But the result is awesome. The lamp used to illuminate the pages of the Lectionary seemingly glows with the inspiration of the Word of God. AWESOME!

Was this co-incidence? I think not. More like God-incidence!
