    It actually took me a minute to realize the picture was of the mountain range and its waterfalls. My first impression was that it was the ocean–beautiful blue body of water with a sliver of a whale or some sea life showing itself as a stream of liquid silver. I’d like to think that my “mistake” was Spirit’s way of reminding me that everything is connected–even in how it appears to us lowly humans.

    This picture takes my breath away-beautiful! “When the grandeur of the planet just leaves me speechless, that is when I wish I was a better photographer…” I feel the same.

      Thanks so much! I wanted to write about the scale of it all, but could not find the words today! Those waterfalls are enormous, and quite spectacular to see.
