Virtual Book Tour: Book Review at Provoking Beauty by Leanne Shawler

Today’s stop on the Virtual Book Tour is a review from Leanne Shawler at her blog Provoking Beauty.  Read on for her perspective:

Eyes of the HeartAs Christine reveals in her book, with photography we shape our world to share who we are, what we believe and think. You see it every day on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, etc. Christine guides us to a different way: contemplative photography asks us to receive images instead of choosing images to take. Through this process, as well as later sitting with the photos, we catch a glimpse of God in our world.
