Indianapolis-born and New York City-based photographer Daniel Kukla spent last March living in Joshua Tree National Park in southern California as part of an artist’s residency. While hiking and driving, he would catch glimpses of the border where the Sonoran Desert met the high Mojave. In the ecological sciences, the border space created by the meeting of distinct ecosystems is referred to as the edge effect. To document this unique confluence of terrains, Kukla took a large mirror and painter’s easel into the wilderness and captured opposing elements within the environment. Using a single visual plane, this series of images unifies the play of temporal phenomena, contrasts of color and texture, and natural interactions of the environment itself.
His photo project has been published in the New York Times, The Washington Post, and National Geographic and many more.

Daniel 's creativity and expertise is clearly reflected in these magic mirrors. My favourite is the last one with the stars shining in the deep dark night sky. The stars look like pearls sewn on velvet cloth.
Which is yours?
In 1 Cor. 13;12 the Bible says that "Now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face, now I know in part, but then I shall know fully just as I also have been fully known.
My experience of God is sufficient for this earthly life , but it is not complete. Its like peering into a dark , milky mirror compared to what I will find in heaven. Then I will know God as He knows me now, completely.
All mysteries and questions will be solved.
Till then...
Mirrored here may our lives , tell His story.

Very interesting, Amrita! I like the last one also! He has really set his mirrors well, capturing blades of grass or rocks in the foreground which gives the near and far picture of things.
That 's right C-A, really fascinating....like from the earth to the sky
Dear Amrita,
You never stop amazing me with new depths and such a variety of topic, all ending up to praise the Lord.
You are a source to wisdom and joy.
Love the art, love the starry sky.

I really enjoyed photoes! Yes, during our life we won't know everything - we don't know everything about the Earth, so what should we say about spiritual miracles? One day I read and interview with scientist - he was genetic. He told that this all knowledge about human genes, which we have now - it is only the top of ice mountain. So it is the sign, that we should be humble and remember about it.
Very cool! i don't know which is my favorite...too hard to choose! I do love the concept of our lives mirroring His in this life....
Dear friend s thank you for your comments. I am sorry I have not been unable to pay you a visit, but soon I will. God bless you
