What’s scary from one perspective;

This is a picture of a lightning strike I took. Something notable: it looks freaking cool

Another thing: I took it on a plane attempting to land during a thunderstorm.

So what I have to say is this: what seems scary from one perspective, if you change your perspective and slow down, things become beautiful.

Thank you

... Read moreLightning strikes are both terrifying and beautiful, often creating awe-inspiring scenes. They can be unpredictable and dangerous when you're outdoors, especially during thunderstorms. However, from a different perspective—such as viewing one from an aircraft—lightning can be astonishingly beautiful. Photographers and weather enthusiasts often seek out thunderstorms for the dramatic lighting and unique cloud formations. The art of storm photography requires patience and skill, as capturing that perfect moment can involve waiting through some uncertainty. This article encourages readers to embrace the unpredictable aspects of nature, which can lead to unexpected beauty. Whether photographing lightning or simply observing storms, it’s a reminder that beauty often lies in contrast—fear can turn into fascination when viewed from the right angle. Storm chasing has become increasingly popular, leveraging technology like radar and weather apps. Recent advancements allow photographers to plan shoots effectively and safely. As you explore the world of storm photography, remember to appreciate both the thrill and the beauty it encapsulates.

Perspective.
This was relaxing. It’s very simple to do. I just grabbed a few items from around my house and drew a little circles and then put a dot on the page. I took an envelope and I lined the dot up with the outer edge of the circle, and drew lines to either side of the circle. Then I just colored it in.

The Perspective Shift That Changed My Peace 🌸
Lately I’ve been learning that peace isn’t always found in everything around you finally settling down. Sometimes peace comes from perspective shifting. 🌸 From slowing down. From protecting your mind. From seeing things differently. From trusting God while you’re still in the middle of it.
