Window Art :: LUMENopia Photography

One of the benefits of sub-zero weather (-13F) is this natural crystalline artwork that playfully fills the windows of our 83 year old house.  If I were to own energy efficient windows this delicate artwork would be in search of a new canvas.  Appreciating these ice sculptures is admittedly a weak reason to own these old windows, but I do like them for their character, strength and their ability to generate beauty.  I have walked past these countless times, but today I stopped to appreciate what each window was presenting.  As I wandered from room to room with my camera (my kids were being read to by mom) I quietly studied their uniqueness and beauty.

One could draw fitting parallels to life.  Life is temporary.  Each day is unique and will never reappear in exactly the same way.  Take time each day to see and appreciate what is before us before it is gone.
