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

How to Use This Board  


Here's our
37th Challenge for you all.




"D E V O T I O N"




Details:  

  • This topic was chosen by Ron Tesnear, who won our  last Challenge. He chose the new subject of "Devotion".  He says simply - "No limitations or parameters to add. Anxious to see what comes from this. ".  So let's see how many ways we can show this wonderful concept.  Put on those thinking caps and let your imaginations go!


  • Use the attachment feature to show your photos (see directions above in the link to "How to Use This Board") in your post or link to them from your gallery or an offsite location that allows linking using the image codes.  If you have trouble, please contact a moderator (name in blue) or an administrator (name in red) and we'll help you post your photo.  If you have your photo in your gallery, please don't use the attachment feature as that puts the photo on our server twice but rather link to it.  It's best if your photos are at least 500 to 600 pixels wide so that they are easily seen.  Please keep your photos under 175 KB in size.

  • Please upload up to 4 entries per member for this challenge.  

  • The challenge is open now and will be closed to uploads on October 25, 2009  and then we'll vote on them.  

  • Please tell us the camera you used to take your photo and when you took it.  Please only enter photos taken by you.  

  • Please put a short title above your photo.  We need the title for the poll listing.  If you want to tell us a bit about your photos, please put it below your picture or in a separate post.  

  • Please post only one entry per post/message.  

  • Of course, we're going to see who is posting the photos so this is not an anonymous challenge.  So start posting.  Click on the "Reply" button below and start this challenge!
    Remember, this is a fun project!

First, Let me congratulate Ron for his well deserved winning shot, as well as the other amazing entries from equally talented photographers.

Second, I would like to thank Ron for picking a very challenging theme. This subject of
"Devotion" is quite interesting.

Let us all have fun sharing our visions of Devotion.

Grow Old Along With Me

[attachimg=#]

Candidly shot in Toronto with Fuji Finefix S2 Pro. I could not resist the sweetness of
this elderly couple. All these years, they are still so devoted to each other.

Thanks Pat and Jeanne. It never fails to move me every time I look at that elderly couple's photo. How often do see couples as sweet as that?

 Thank you, Steve.
But I am sure there are more amazing photos yet to be posted from
other artistic and talented photographers like yourself. I am just hoping
that my entries bring out the best from other contestants.
Contest is not over until the last posting.

Steve, Don is away and hasn't started the poll yet, so I'll go put "Not for the Challenge" on that picture and that way he can skip over it.  OK? ;)

I know were keeping you busy. I've gone through almost all of my Galleries looking for the right pictures. I want to enter 2 more pictures I found but that means I need to have the "Mother Gator Picture Removed." I would certainly appreciate it if you could.
