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








Details:   

• From buddywoods:  "Show us your best LANDSCAPE photos for this challenge--mountains, rivers, waterfalls, etc.!. Here is an opportunity to come up with some fascinating and creative pictures! Think about your photo and plan your position and the lighting and get a really nice LANDSCAPE shot!"   

• 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.    

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

• If you possibly can, please tell us the camera you used to take your photo and when you took it.  But if you don't know, please post the picture anyway.  We want to see your photos.  :)  Please only enter photos taken by you.    

• The challenge is open now and will be locked to uploads on Sunday, September 8, 2013 and then we'll vote on them.    

• Please put a title in your post for your photos.  We need the title for the poll.   

• 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!    

Thanks to buddywoods for suggesting this topic.  He was the winner of our last Challenge entitled "Summer".  Thanks buddywoods!
