his

How interesting that the feathers left so precise an imprint and otherwise left the snow undisturbed.
Your words are perfect for this image.
Such a peaceful, beautiful picture! I love the post you put with it.
like the wind.
cool post.
i like the feather prints.
Beautiful!

A challenging thought: we are leaving our imprints on the lives of those we come in contact with . . . and even those we won't ever meet by praying for them, giving to worthwhile causes, etc. May our touch be gentle ...
Beautiful photos
you notice the most spectacular things.
I have never seen the like! The snow imprint of an owl wing!! This is too lovely, and how wonderful that you saw this and thought to photograph it!
You have such "gifted" eyes Susan. You see beauty so clearly and then give it to us as a gift. Thank you.
Such lovely thoughts - reminds me of the depiction of the Holy Spirit in "The Shack"
Magical!
What an inspiring and magical blog you have here!
"our words and actions matter"...this is something to be mindful of every day... The feather "imprints" swell the heart... :o) Happy Day, Susan ((HUGS))
Incredible photo. And that's so true about the Holy Spirit---it sweeps in and leaves a delicate imprint, but oh the power behind that imprint! Loved this.
a good thing you were there to capture it with your camera, never seen anything like it. beautiful
another favorite post...filled with wisdom. xox
his feather imprint
took my breath away!
Whoa, that is something.
Speaking of skiing, I am going along with 28 kds (k-5 grade) today. I reckon the imprints I leave will be way deeper and fraught with pain!
Blessings.
wonderful. magical.
Love the Finnish proverb and the sleek photograph...so calming.
Beautiful, Susan... I love that photo.
Beautiful and interesting!!!^^
Have a blessed day!!!^^
what leaves its mark on you surely must do so with great tenderness for it seems whenever and wherever you bear witness to it you leave its kindness.
a first visit here.
thank you.
What an awesome find!
stunning image of the snow and the evidence of life that was there!
breathtaking, susan!
Such a gentle imprint.....much like ours...we just have to pray that ours will be positive and half as beautiful as the owl left........
This was very meaningful to me...thanks
Oh my...you are quite right...we are on the same page. I love the idea of the Owl leaving an imprint in the snow.
Wow!
Front row view to such
wild kingdom action!
Thanks for sharing,
Jen
this is a special continuation of that stunning series ..the quotes really add so much
Excellent photo!
What a lovely though.
Sometimes it's scary, just how much our actions and words matter; just how much of an impact they can make.
Wow, that's really cool. Impressions last -- even something as graceful and ephemeral as an owl's feathered wing.
This is deep seeing. Amazing.
