Description
Enjoying God’s creation is one of the best ways to de-stress during these uncertain times.
This is a photo I took overlooking the Pacific Ocean at Rodeo Beach close to Fort Cronkhite near the Golden Gate Bridge just north of San Francisco, California USA.
I felt Psalm 18:2 is very appropriate:
“The Lord is my rock
and my fortress and my deliverer;
my God, my strength,
in whom I will trust;
my shield and the horn of my salvation,
my stronghold” (NKJV).
May you know God's Shalom Shalom ~ His perfect peace ~ as you place your complete trust in the Lord, Creator of the universe.

Grateful to God and thankful to the group hosts for kindly featuring "The LORD Is My Rock" on the homepages of the following Fine Art America groups ::
* IMAGES THAT EXCITE YOU, 11.19.20

Pictured:
A western gull (Larus occidentalis) makes a landing on top of one of the rock formations, its wings outstretched in a majestic pose. If you use the zoom in feature, you will notice a cargo ship going out to sea on the distant horizon.
Photography notes:
Please kindly note that the "Fine Art America" watermark will not be on any purchased print or product. It only shows in the preview on this page.
Embedded in the top right-hand corner is the Hebrew acronym for "B'ezras Hashem" [ב ס " ד] meaning "with God's help". It is a reminder to me as an artist and photographer of my dependence on the Almighty, the Originator of all creativity. This is a similar acknowledgement used by great artists like Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frideric Handel who signed their work with the Latin phrase, "Soli Deo gloria" which means, "Glory to God alone".
