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

How to Use This Board  




Here's our
59th Challenge for you all.




"Butterflies, Spiders, Bugs and Worms"



  • This topic was chosen by bhall07, who won our  last Challenge.


    What a wonderful variety of subjects this offers!  Thank you bhall07 for suggesting this new topic!

    Please read carefully the "Details" about what is expected, and the rules for posting your photos.

    Details as described by bhall07:
    "Closeups (macros) of any living small creature. No inanimate objects." "


    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.    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.

  • 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.  Instructions for doing this are in the "How to" section.  CLICK HERE  If you need any help, please contact a moderator (name in blue) or an administrator (name in red) and we'll help you post your photo.

  • 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!

PAINTED LADY

[attachimg=#]



Taken with a Canon S5IS. Yep, I know it's time for a new and better model but she's my fwend! Click to see it bigger.
The world is very fair to see
The artist will not let it be
He fiddles with the works of God
And makes them look uncommon odd!

Click to see bigger. Taken with Canon S5IS. Can't figure out how to put the info at the bottom, sorry! This picture gets me emotionally. It echoes the struggles of life. The butterfly with a broken wing is clinging to a flower with broken petals.
