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




Here's our Eighth Challenge for you all, suggested by Etta Sue who tied with two others in the last challenge but then in the "run-off" she came out on top to choose this topic.




"THINGS THAT GLOW"


Details:   


  • Show us your best photos of illustrating "THINGS THAT GLOW" for this challenge.  Here is an opportunity to come up with some fascinating and creative pictures! This could be anything from a sunset, to a proud child, to a candle!     


  • 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.    


  • The challenge is open now and will be closed to uploads on Sunday, Sept. 10, 2006 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 Etta Sue for suggesting this topic.  She was the winner of our last Challenge entitled "Trash or Treasure".  Thanks Etta Sue!

And because I am in another time zone (no, not the twilight zone!), I'll start with a shot from this morning's bike ride.  A fisherman leaves Iwakuni Port and heads out for work.
