The whole point of Macro shooting to me is to zoom in on a singular subject, get as close to it as possible and make it the focus of the picture. (I have totally bumped my 5QF Vlog so scroll down to see that!)
Today's submission is....
This is a page out of my bible, but I was focusing on how the verse talks about not worrying about your life because if God takes care of the birds; how much more important are you?
I thought this was a perfect example of not macro shooting with my camera, but how we need to apply some macro viewing in our own lives. So often we get caught up in watching the news, worrying about finances, worrying about what others think, etc. that we lose our focus by trying to see the big picture. If we could look through a macro lens at our life and focus singularly on the fact that God loves us so much and will provide for us more than the birds, the rest of all those worries get kind of blurry.

Hi there,
Coming over from the blog frog and the 31DBB challenge.
Interesting perspective in your latest post. Never hurts to take a step back and look at the bigger picture in our lives.
Your blog design is very clever and a really nice pay off to the whole theme of your blog.

Now you have made me want to participate in macro friday! LOL
Thanks for stopping by my blog!
Very cool! I had a stressful week and could sure use that reminder! Thanks!
I really, really love this. That verse always has meant so much to me.
When I have struggled through things, I've always gotten a lot of peace from the song "His eye is on the sparrow"...I sing it often.
One day, I looked up it's origins, and was AMAZED to find that it was an older woman from our own very sleepy town, who inspired the song, back in 1905.
Thanks for posting this... brought a big smile to my face!
I love this! Love the photo, love what you wrote! :) I like the angle you take the photo from... very nice shot!
Creative shot! I love it! Also love what you wrote about macro viewing our own lives. Kinda fits for what I've been going through personally lately.
