How to Use This Board (http://www.christianphotographers.com/community/index.php?topic=5279.0)
Here's our
50th Challenge for you all.
"Fall Is In The Air"
[attachimg=#]
Details: - This topic was chosen by Fotobirder, who won our last Challenge.
His explanation: "Anything that tells us that fall has arrived. It can be beautiful Folliage or Frost on a leaf or a Pumpkin Patch. People or Animals can be in the pictures."
Let's encourage folks by letting them know we're enjoying their entries.
- 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, 2010 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.
- 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!
Let's ALSO NOT put any photos in this challenge labelled "NOT AN ENTRY" or anything that is not to be voted on.
Remember, this is a fun project!

Am I missing seeing "Twilight Corn" by Gordo on the list?
Rokitman, you are absolutely right! It is missing. I'll see about getting it in there ASAP. Thanks!
I don't know how others may feel about it, but this was certainly one of the hardest I've experienced to pick out the "best" ones. There's some GREAT ones in here!
I found an error also.
GOURDS is by Jim D not by smokey the dog!
AAARRRRGGGHHHH! :yikes:
I really need a keeper! Thanks, Smokey. I'll fix it.
I will be able to start helping with the next challenge Jeanne, Still getting up to speed on this puter. You have done great...don't beat yourself up!
Judy, you must be soooo happy to finally have your computer! :cheer:
Great Job Everyone! Some great Reminders of Fall. Every picture was a winner in my eyes.

I'm happy to know your first name now. Go to Jeanne Lee's Name and click on it. You should see Jeanne Lee's info. Underneath this it will have a place(Under Additional Information at the bottom) where you can send her a personal message. You click on that and send her the info for the next challenge. Sounds like a lot of fun.

Have I missed the announcement of the new Challenge? You know me. I'm always ready to move on. Maybe I need to be hogtied.
Steve
No, Steve. We haven't announced a new challenge yet. We're hoping Judy will be able to work the next one - she's waiting to replace a burned out modem.
Just got word from Judy that she can't get ready yet to do the next challenge, so you'll just have to put up with me one more time. I'll have it ready shortly. :thumbsup:
