Faith… through a camera’s lens

#BlogElul 6 – Faith

 

Last Shabbat I was in the Alaska wilderness celebrating and honoring the beauty of God’s creations with my family.  For me – and maybe for you – sights and sounds like these connect me to God and remind me that this universe cannot be just one big coincidence.  Sights and sounds like these reaffirm, restore and  strengthen my faith.

Denali National Park. Imagine six million more acres of this:


Mt McKinley (also known by her native name as Denali) as seen on a perfectly clear day from Denali National Park. Definitely a shehecheyanu moment as only 30% of visitors see the Denali in her full glory.

Along the White Pass in British Columbia, Canada:

Sunset in the Inside Passage:

The sacred sound of laughter and play of children, young and old (my niece, nephews and brother):

The love of family (my sons):

Shabbat shalom!
