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

My Thoughts On Big Lenses (funny, not serious)

OK, so the first thing I thought when I saw this was "oh sweet, I'll take one" then I thought "wait a minute, am I really gonna carry this around with me all the time? I think not. Plus, I really dislike the color." But then I thought "on the other hand, it would be cool to see the expression on the face of a football player in a game." But then we have a problem.... When I walk up to the front entrance of the stadium carrying my 25 pound (at least) lens, the security dude in front, is gonna think I'm sneaking in some kind of rocket launcher, or hiding a bomb in this huge tube. So I stand there for 15 to 20 minutes while the security guy disassembles my $4,000 lens to make sure it's not a weapon. Then when he's all done destroying my lens, he (of course) can't remember how put the thing back together. So now I'm stuck with a pile of glass parts worth nothing.  >:( Too bad I paid for a spot in the nosebleed section (the bleachers) so I could test the power of my new lens. Lucky thing I still have my 18mm lens to shoot those tiny white specks on the that little green square way down there.

This whole thing make me glad I'm not a sports photographer.
