What is your interpretation of this quote?
I've heard that the devil is in the details, but I think I like this saying more! I interpret this saying as meaning that opportunities for discovery and creativity come from delving deep into the details that surround you, and you can't be content with simply floating by all God's beauty. It's not truly beautiful until you look close enough to see the intricate-ness that makes it awing.
How can we see God in the details every day?
Let's say you're walking down the street, either going somewhere or coming back from something. Well, that seems pretty boring right? No! It doesn't have to be! When you're walking, try looking at the ground around you. I guarantee there's some pretty interesting stuff down there you might never have noticed if you didn't take a few seconds and glance. Now that it's spring, you can see all types of things surrounding you that are almost all tiny intricate details. Like bumblebees! Now, I'm not saying we should all go really close to a bee and try to examine it for God, but we should try to be conscious the next time one flies past. They're so fuzzy and really the only thing intimidating about them would probably be the buzzing. These little things can be enough to get you through that long walk in what seems like half the time!
How might we use our cameras in order to discover and preserve these details?
There are things all around us that we can find God's beauty and detail in. There is texture, color, and shape all so small we barely even notice it if we're not looking. We can use our camera's (in a macro setting if needed, of course!) to get close enough to those small details that we can capture them and preserve them for everyone to see! Some things last only a few seconds, a few days, maybe even years, but with technology today, a picture can be preserved for a very long time!!!
