Thankful: November 8

I am thankful for the ability to see.

I think one of the most wonderful functions of the human body is the eyes. As a "photographer" (I say that tongue in cheek), there are so many times I'll see something wonderful that I want to capture in a photograph. I take the photograph and then when it's one the screen or printed, it just doesn't seem to capture the full range of beauty that my eyes were able to transmit to my brain. Maybe it's the transference from three dimension to two dimension, but, regardless, it just usually doesn't seem to measure up.

I cannot imagine what life would be like without my vision and I am so thankful for it.
