Oldiesmann: I'm not aware of any Jenny. Not sure why activity has died down on this site so much though 2023-06-12, 00:06:36

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

Carol: Thankful:  Don is home from hospital.  I found him unconscious with head outside on the floor and the rest was in the shower.  At the same moment, one son was walking through the front door to visit.  Two fire trucks came racing in and they took over After 2021-12-29, 22:01:26

Wasn't sure where to put this so I put it here.  Yesterday John Madden had his annual Bocce Ball invitational in Livermore, CA.  My father in law is an ex- Oakland Raider (he played on the o-line) next to greats like Jim Otto, Art Shell, Vella, etc.  He has a SuperBowl ring so he is often invited to partake in 'celebrity events'.

Anywho, this year I was asked to attend with him (I'm no celebrity but I am a good bocce player) but it backfired a bit for them.  They recruited me for the Oakland team however the Raiderettes showed up and one of them took my spot.  SO, the 49er team was short and they asked me to play with them.  I said sure, ran onto the court, and who am I teamed up with?  George Seifert.  If you're a football fan you probably know the name.  George and I sweeped them, 10-0.

Anyways, my wife took some shots but she knows even less then I do when it comes to shooting and set it to manual with the flash which of course in the dark indoor room means all the photos were completely underexposed. One was salvageable:

Looks like everyone is having fun.

It does look like fun!

But, couldn't you doctor up the underexposed shots with Photoshop or PSP?
