Can you find the tornado in this photograph? Look at the larger image and study the lowering beneath the storm carefully. There is a needle shaped tornado dancing it’s way across a field of grasshoppers and sunflowers in the Kansas prairie near the town of Protection. This is an extremely wide-angle shot, I have “leveled out” some of the distortion created by the fisheye, but not too much as to ruin the shot. I personally love how the inflow band appears to be tracking directly above the highway and leading right into the heart of the spinning dragon of the Great Plains. This storm was truly remarkable and produced several tornadoes for all those who came to watch.
When man is hurt threw the power of love, ....he often unleashes a beast from with in …..to protect his emotions, .. his feeling, ....his broken heart. The beast is known by no other name than ego…many men carry ego with them there whole life…never knowing what it is like to express emotions…to cry…to open up there self to another human being.

can you feel …..... / golden velvet walls / are they violet flames / feeling tall / on mountain tops / of earth i was now i am fire / cleanse purify / say goodbye / to what once was / feel new wings soar above wild i was / in private lives / where i smouldered / yet felt small fire anew / smelting walls / spirit rise and water falls / from skyclad flesh / where clung the aroma of death

I played around with the grass of the everglades to be able to have something of the essence i feel when i see that grass running for miles and miles.. this place breathes Gods Glory in the whispers of this gras.. and I feel compelled to give God the glory.. I hope you enjoy . The Everglades are a subtropical wetland located in the southern portion of the U.S. state of Florida, comprising the southern half of a large watershed. The system begins near Orlando with the Kissimmee River, which discharges into the vast but shallow Lake Okeechobee. Water leaving the lake in the wet season forms a slow-moving river 60 miles (97 km) wide and over 100 miles (160 km) long, flowing southward across a limestone shelf to Florida Bay at the southern end of the state. The ever-changing Everglades are shaped by water and fire, with frequent flooding in the wet season and drought in the dry season. Environmental activist Marjory Stoneman Douglas popularized the term “River of Grass” to describe the sawgrass marshes, part of a complex system of interdependent ecosystems that include cypress swamps, the estuarine mangrove forests of the Ten Thousand Islands, tropical hardwood hammocks, pine rockland, and the marine environment of Florida Bay.

red winged black bird …I guess it is protecting the nest near by.

This Lilac was protected by it’s heart shaped leaves. There is an old hymn, “Rock of ages, cleft for me, let me hide my self in thee”. Our lives are hidden in Christ, where NO one can touch us! Safe! For eternity…. Can you fathom that wonderful news? He did it all for us, so we are safe in Him… no matter what! Hallelujah, what a Savior!! / /
And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. / [From Mat 3:16-17 KJV] I thought I’d experiment with several layers and the wording which I wanted to impress the image below the dove. The dove isn’t actually a dove at all but a seagull, LOL I haven’t anymore dove shots since I lost a lot when my computer had to be formatted and everything reinstalled. The actual idea came to me during a shower, as one would know the mind is forever active, all I saw in my vision was a dove coming through what appeared as a door, dark and gloomy, the dove slowly began to radiate, I didn’t want the dove in this image to actually radiate, as I wanted the initial vision to manifest in my work..
