Capturing What I See

July 20, 2020 by Mandy Miller

Saturday, we drove the back roads and went on a hike. I will write about the hike when I’ve processed it enough. For now I’m sharing this pic Jack took of me. It isn’t necessarily flattering, but he captured me doing what I do. And I didn’t even know he was taking the pics. At the mid point of the hike we reached this destination. I took more pictures than most people would or should. Here I was trying to capture the beautiful butterfly that was fluttering all around us seemingly trying to get my attention. Below are a few of the pictures. They are all similar. I was just using my phone, but I love the shadows in each pic. I think they add to the beauty. I read a quote once about butterflies not being able to see their wings. They can’t see how beautiful they are, but everyone else can. I think people are the same way! Sometimes I think it is the things we can’t see that make us beautiful, not the things we focus on that we think make us beautiful.
