ZoomInZoomOut

Since he is putting my family up for the next few days I thought it would be polite to post a link to my brother-in-law’s new photoblog. Pat is an exceptional photographer, though he always insists he’d be better if only he could get that new camera or that special lens for his own camera. I tried that once at a camera store and the owner was kind enough to point out that the problem with my camera was the person staring through the lens and that a good photographer could do great work even with a bad camera. I took his advice to heart and gave up my dreams of being a great photographer. Pat, fortunately, continues to press on! You can check out his work at ZoomInZoomOut.net. And if you’re not in a hurry, post a comment and let him know that Tim sent you.

  • Pray Until You Feel Like It

    It is wise to set aside a time and place to pray—to build the habit and to then maintain it. But creating the habit may not always create the desire.
