Post by: Pat on July 02, 2009, 12:58:46 PM



Please help us congratulate
The Winners

"The Joy of Summer"!


The top four have been chosen by you, our members and now we would
appreciate everyone congratulating our winners!

http://www.christianphotographers.com/community/index.php?topic=8704.msg137068#msg137068







How to Use This Board (http://www.christianphotographers.com/community/index.php?topic=5279.0)


Here's our
34th Challenge for you all.




"JOY OF SUMMER"


Details:   

  • This topic was chosen by Kevin aka mybcjazz, who won our  last Challenge. He chose the new subject of "The Joy of Summer". .  Kevin says, "That's pretty non-specific, so kids, grandkids, and anything cute (sweaty, soaking wet) is acceptable.  And for our down under friends, they can reach into their archives, or tell, "it's summer down here!"


  • 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 July 19, 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 do that in a separate post so that every post ONLY has the Title and then the Photo and that's all.   

  • 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!
