Almost everywhere we look for art, we can find something that is inspired by nature. Whether it is a five year old drawing a picture of their family on their front lawn, or a moving landscape portrait taken by Ansel Adams, nature is almost always incorporated somewhere. But can we really take credit for capturing natures beauty? Did we really have much to do with how beautiful the earth is, or was it all done by someone greater than us? In my humble opinion, nature was created by God, and He deserves all of the credit for how breath taking it is. Yes, a photographer can adjust their light sources, use lenses with microscopic capabilities, and shoot from appealing angles, but does that really do anything to change the raw beauty of nature? It is a question that I don't believe anyone can really ever answer, especially because people have different beliefs on how the earth was formed, how people came to be, ect. It is simply food for thought.
Personally, I believe that something, someONE greater than us had a hand in creating the world around us. No human could ever construct the raw, flawed, yet magnificent world that we live in. We all have our opinions and this is just mine.
