Gull Feather

Sometimes the beauties of nature lie in the "big picture"--the Oregon coastline, a forest of redwoods, a vast mountain range. And sometimes the beauty is discovered in the smallest detail--in this case a gull feather on the beach accompanied by grains of sand in their wide variety of colors, each with their own unique history of formation, travel, and shaping. That's why I carry a wide-angle lens to encompass the big stuff, and a macro lens to focus on the small stuff.

God does a better job at that than I do, for God sees the "big picture" in ways beyond my capability, and God's eye is also on the sparrow, the gull, and all the tiniest details of creation.
