Oldiesmann: I'm not aware of any Jenny. Not sure why activity has died down on this site so much though 2023-06-12, 00:06:36

JennyW: Also, does anyone know other photo sharing sites that are Christian? 2023-05-16, 08:47:03

JennyW: Hello Everyone! I really miss activity on this site. I've been discouraged by photography sites where you have to sort through so much explicit content in order to see photos that truly glorify God. I'd love to see this site pick up again. 2023-05-16, 08:46:36

Janet: Carol, I am just reading this.  So sorry for your loss, glad your beloved Don knew the Lord and you have the assurance of his eternity  and that you WILL see him again.  Much love to you.  Janet 2022-06-18, 08:49:36

Carol: Thankful:  Don is home from hospital.  I found him unconscious with head outside on the floor and the rest was in the shower.  At the same moment, one son was walking through the front door to visit.  Two fire trucks came racing in and they took over After 2021-12-29, 22:01:26

Another stormy day, and the steelwork of a building is being erected in Blackburn, I just happened to notice the bright yellow of the diagonal gib of the crane set against the wonderful blue structure behind.
   I got out the camera and 90mm lens and to my horror found the lens barrel and lens cap coated in chocolate, yes the summicron, anyway the picture first then a quick session of getting the chocolate off the lens, and when I got home I went to work with some wooden cocktail sticks which did an excellent job and got every bit of it out of all the nooks and crannies, and then some moist lens wipes to mop up any residue.
   How a piece of chocolate had got in the camera bag in the first place I'll never know, but it did, surprising what happens.

Well, I like this, chocolate and all!  I love the stark contrast of yellow against blue. 
Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass .... it's about learning to dance in the rain!
