AMIDST THE CLOUD OF MANY WITNESSES - I shall dance with joy
Code: ph11-14
THE
STORY:
As with "Dancing for JOY" I was in the process of videoing friends windsurfing at Rangiputa, Kari Kari Peninsula, Northland, New Zealand when the strong guttural sounds of birds above me, in a Macrocarpa tree, challenged my dedication to the task at hand. I watched, observed their habits and realized I had a new story to tell. Because of the strong wind they seemed to be playing games in the air currents and then landing in the tree for periods of rest. That was it, I must satisfy my desire to capture images..
As I watched I saw the pleasure they were experiencing and it seemed to me the life they were showing was a reflection of the glory God had placed in their character. I was hooked, and after a series of photos this story begged to find a surreal edge to it with expressions of delight as when a child plays and is enjoyed by their delighted father. If you have experienced this emotion, when, either your natural father or your heavenly fathers joy is noticed by you as he enjoys seeing his son or daughter playing with such child like abandon and freedom. I chose the pillars idea from a thought that any person who builds their faith upon the wisdom from heaven can only dance with joy as they discover the freedom in knowing the truth in the words "I love you and get great pleasure out of seeing you enjoy what I have given you to enjoy". The heart of a true fathers affection for His offspring as seen in the pillars of truth. Forgiveness, mercy and life everlasting. This image is a further adapting of joy in front of friends and family.
