Our Praise team sang this song in church yesterday morning, I found the lyrics, and wanted to share them with you!

 

“The Well”

 

Leave it all behind,

Leave it all behind,

Leave it all behind,

 

I have what you need,

But you keep on searchin,

I’ve done all the work,

But you keep on workin,

When you’re runnin on empty,

And you can’t find the remedy,

Just come to the well.

 

You can spend your whole life,

Chasin what’s missing,

But that empty inside,

It just ain’t gonna listen.

When nothing can satisfy,

And the world leaves you high and dry,

Just come to the well

 

[CHORUS:]

And all who thirst will thirst no more,

And all who search will find what their souls long for,

The world will try, but it can never fill,

So leave it all behind, and come to the well

 

So bring me your heart

No matter how broken,

Just come as you are,

When your last prayer is spoken,

Just rest in my arms a while,

You’ll feel the change my child,

When you come to the well

 

[CHORUS:]

And all who thirst will thirst no more,

And all who search will find what their souls long for,

The world will try, but it can never fill,

So leave it all behind, and come to the well

 

Yeah

Leave it all behind

 

The world will try, but it can never fill… leave it all behind

 

And now that you’re full,

Of love beyond measure,

Your joy’s gonna flow,

Like a stream in the desert,

Soon all the world will see that living water is found in me,

Cuz you came to the well

 

[CHORUS:]

And all who thirst will thirst no more,

And all who search will find what their souls long for,

The world will try, but it can never fill,

So leave it all behind, and come to the well

 

[Outro:] leave it all behind, leave it all behind… [repeat]

I learned a valuable lesson from David Muench who is well known for using a large dominent foreground object to establish depth, in this case the object is the subject.

 

 

The paper birch trunk provides a leading line and a foreground object in this forest bottom shot made in the Acadia Garden in Acadia National Park.

 

 

Sometimes a subject that is masked creates a mystery and a desire to “see more.”  You don’t have to see all the details to get the “picture”,  poor play on words!

 

 

At other times a great intense color shot can fill the bill!

 

 

On some occasions shapes can carry the day.

 

 

Sometimes the absence of color can make the grapic elements really stand out!

 

 

Control of the background allows your subject to stand out with out distractions!

 

 

Timing is everything.

 

 

Hang out at airports and you may meet someone interesting!  That’s Harrison Ford with his DeHavilland Beaver in Jackson, Wyoming.

Spring is upon us and starting to be in all it’s glory.  I love the rush of greens in all their hues.  Just for fun I went out yesterday and shot a number of images all with the Fujifilm X-T2 and the 100-400 lens.

 

 

 

I hope you enjoy your spring!

 

Blessings,
