JennyW: Hello Janet! I check every day. I wish everyone would get going again! I miss seeing pictures and reading posts! 2025-01-24, 06:54:04

Janet: Hello, Friends!  Let's get this going again!  I miss  hearing from all of you! 2025-01-23, 19:26:16

Don: Hey Judy, It's been a long time. Hope you are doing well. 2024-12-02, 22:41:41

JennyW: Hello Everyone! Just checking in to see if anyone wants to get this group going again! Hope all is well where ever you live! 2024-08-14, 08:21:59

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

Oldiesmann: So sorry for your loss Carol. Praying for you and your family :( 2022-05-01, 17:13:05

One other thing I'll mention. Those Snow Pictures were fabulous. I loved the Snow and Blue Sky. This challenge probably had more of the kind of pictures I love to see. :groupwave: :groupwave: :yes: :yes: Thanks to Kevin for a great challenge. May the Lord bless & keep you.

But Don did a fantastic job in keeping the poll updated on a daily basis and he made sure that all the titles were in the same spot above each entry and he enlarged all the attachments so Don did a stellar job too!

Thanks Don!!!

Congratulations to all of the winners and to all of the talented Christian photographers who entered their beautiful photos.

Pat, your entry is my personal top choice. I love everything about it.
Like I said before, it isn't about winning. It is about sharing our individual
talents that we all received from God.

God Bless Us All,

Awww...  Laughing Peppers, I so appreciate your post and my thoughts are the same as yours.  It's not about winning.  It's nice to win but I just so love to come in here and see everyone's work and view the creation in our world as seen through the lens and eyes of our fellow members.

Thanks again.  (I was pleased to get that photo.  Not sure if I said that I had seen a postcard in WalMart in Winchester, VA with a similar photo on it last year and I've been waiting and waiting to try to capture a similar scene of just the rolling on and on of the distant hills.  In this photo, I was doubly pleased with the sky that seemed to have a similar pattern.)

I'm anxious to see what Sarge comes up for all of us!

Congratulations, Sarge, for a great winning photo.  I'm happy to say I voted for that one too.

And congratulations to all the gifted photographers who let us see your pictures.  I agree with the others, winning is nice, but the most important thing is just showing off what God made. :)   

It was a delight to see the Natural Landscape photos.

CONGRATULATIONS, SARGE FOR A CHAMPIONSHIP ENTRY!!

It was so nice to see all the GRAND entries.  On Pat's other photo site, the Photography Cafe, there are so many talented landscape photographers.  And all they do is present their images, without talking them up, and they never cease to amaze me.

Thus, my stringent rules for this competition.  Landscape.  Recently shot.  Standing on its photographic merits.

Well, landscape photography is one area where I want to excel, but still have quite a way to go. And I hope we all had an opportunity to lift up HIS name as we either "made" these lovely images, or just enjoyed what others presented.

No, it isn't all about winning, but it is about giving our best for the LORD, in all that we do.

In His Grip,
Kevin

Congratulations to all who entered.  It was difficult to make a choice and I made the mistake of not reading that you could choose 5.  But I'm still pretty happy that my 1 choice came in 2nd.   :thumbsup:

Hi everyone.

WOW, sorry I haven't replied to this sooner, as I have been quite busy with homework (still in school!). It has been quite hard with tests and everything!

WOW. I can't believe I won this challenge, as it was the last thing i expected! ;D
I am so chuffed that I won, as this is my first ever photograhic win! Thankyou so much for the votes, and I think everyone else deserved to win as much as I did, as they were all superb entries. It was lovely seeing so many beautiful photos.

It may look a bit like HDR, but no I don't even know how to do that. I think it was the fact that I entered white balance settings and changed it!

Thanks, and the next challenge is on the way, which is.......You will have to find out!

I really enjoyed veiwing yours fotobirder. A brilliant entry, as was eveyone else'.
Well done everyone!

Congrats to everyone. I am so happy to see the natural photos for Natural Landscapes.
I actually thought Sarge used HDR, it looked that vibrant.
I was overjoyed to know he didn't. There are so few challanges out there that HDR hasn't snuck in.
God's blessings on all who captured the awesome beauty that our Father has created for us.
