Summer Creation

Let it be emphasized that the use of the word "Creation" in the title of this gallery has nothing to do with my "creation" of the gallery. Rather, it is to give all the glory to The Creator, the infinite, personal Creator of all. When we take a close look at some of the common elements of the Creation: plants and plant parts, as well as insects and other life forms, we are more and more likely to come to the conclusion that these things could not have "evolved" by "natural" processes. Our only response must be: Soli Deo Gloria!
