"He makes the winds His messengers, flames of fire his servants." - Psalm 104:4

This fine art photography image is known as a "cloudscape." The theme and subject of the photograph is clouds high up in the sky. I must tell you that all my life I've been fascinated by clouds, dramatic cloud formations, stormy clouds and skies, and of course, the beauty and colors of sunrises and sunsets. I took this cloudscape a few days ago on my way home from work. I was racing against time to get off the highway to a place where I could see a wide view of the sky and clouds. When I look at this photograph, I experience a sense of wonder and awe at the beauty and glory of God's creation.

"A worker's appetite works for him, for his hunger urges him on." - Prov. 16:26

This inspirational photography image speaks to me of the value of hard work in relation to a man providing for his family. It's not exactly Christian fine art, but it does capture a man demonstrating the Protestant work ethic. This is actually a close friend of mine who is helping another friend of mine to build this beautiful stone wall. It's incredibly hard work with a ton of lifting! How do I know? I tried it and only lasted two and a half hours before I had to quit and find something less strenuous on my body. Ever since then I have a deeper appreciation and greater respect for these hard-working landscapers who work very hard all day long. Photograph by Josiah Friberg of Moravian Falls, North Carolina.

Moravian Falls Storm Clouds - Christian Fine Art Landscape Inspirational Photography by Josiah Friberg

"I will lift up my eyes to the mountains; from whence shall my help come? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth." - Psalm 121:1-2

This is probably my favorite Christian fine art landscape image in my collection. I took this inspirational photography landscape on my way home from work after a big storm had just let up. I was so fortunate that the sun broke through the clouds just as I ran out into the field to capture this image. The sunlight reflecting off the meadow is really the key to this photograph. I also love the way the clouds were just hanging over the mountains of Moravian Falls in the background. May you be inspired by the awesome beauty of God's creation through meditating on this photograph by Josiah Friberg of the Blue Ridge Photographic Society.
