More on a Bbilical Theme or Waiting for the Nonlight

I spent some time in the dark recently photographing the Milky Way. I had to wait for the darkest of nights when there is no moon to lighten the sky. I then added some images that I made of several crosses and the bible.While creating it I kept thinking of the verse "I am the Alpha and the Omega". When I looked up that scripture I felt it really worked as it made the two images work together when I combined them in Photoshop.

Revelation 21:6
He said to me. " It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life."

This was a fun project to do as it stretched my imagination out.

Symbolism

This while waiting for Jay and Annika to get ready for church I photographed some Calla Lilies on a white background and then added a texture over it. Calla Lilies are often used as symbols of rebirth and resurrection. In this case the resurrection of Christ from the dead. Today is Easter. Easter is the biggest day of celebration for Christians all over the world. They are celebrating the resurrection of Christ from the dead three days after his crucifiction on the cross three days before. Christians celebrate because Christ died on the cross as payment on the cross for all of their sins. According to the bible NIV John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."
