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




WE'RE VOTING

CHECK THE ENTRIES ON BOTH PAGES AND THEN

CHOOSE YOUR FIVE FAVORITES




"GOD'S WONDERFUL SKY"


Details:   


  • From bhall07:  "Not photos of the sky alone but where the sky in the background makes the photo special."   


  • 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 Monday, June 20, 2016 and then we'll vote on them.    


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


  • 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!
    Remember, this is a fun project!
       


Thanks to bhall07 for suggesting this topic.  He was the winner of our last Challenge entitled "There's No Place Like Home".  Thanks bhall07!

This photo was taken with a Canon Power SD/780 IS

The beautiful sky was the result of the "ash" that blew in to this area of Arizona after a huge fire in CA.
It turned the normal evening sky into this!

You bet, Bob. I stepped outside to photograph the epic cloud formation when the geese went booming by overhead. I got very lucky; the geese entered that break in the clouds just as I clicked the shutter.

Re: Thoughts for the Week~June 26, 2016 (//http://Re:%20Thoughts%20for%20the%20Week~June%2026,%202016)

I'm still in the hospital and they're making all sorts of med combinations and dosages and adjustments to try to keep my blood pressure in line and to let me home without 24/7 oxygen. 

I have my computer but it's awkward and slow using it, but I'll try to get that winners list put together and posted soon.

I love to read all the Prayers. But through all my struggles, I've learned to live one day or maybe even hour at A Time. Each day seems different as we get older. Sometimes the pain is so unbearable, I pray that the Lord will help me make it through that moment or day. I have A wonderful wife who prays for me and takes care of just about everything. Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to sang A Swan Song for anyone. But Paul said to Die is to be Present with the LORD. Sometimes, I feel that way. But much prayer is keeping us all especially Jeanne Lee here because God still has something left for her to do. But all of our Days our Numbered (Praise God!) Otherwise, we might have to go on living in extreme pain when it would be so much better to be with our Lord and Savor Jesus Christ. I said all that to pray that I pray that it is God's will for Jeanne Lee to get better and get back with us. We really miss you.

May Gods Mercy and Grace continue to be upon you
Steve
