Hi there Betty...
We are very proud of how friendly the gang here is and are glad you've joined us. There is every level of knowledge here so feel free to jump into the forum and set up your album too in the Gallery no matter if you have just gotten your first camera today or have been a professional since the time of large format cameras.
Make yourself at home and enjoy sharing this wonderful art form here at
:cp:
Thank you. I'm looking forward to being a member.
Hi Betty Welcome to Christian Photographers. We would like you to join us in the Thought for the week forum, where everyone tries to post at least once per day. Also we are looking forward to seeing your photos. You don't have to be a professional 0or even an amateur, some are not even photographers but take an occasional photo and post it in one of the photo threads. You can find the Thought for the week thread for this week HERE (http://www.christianphotographers.com/community/index.php?topic=12015.msg167954#msg167954). ,
Thanks. Posting once a day might be a tall order for me:) I have a fairly heavy load at work, but I'll try at least once a week. Maybe when I'm retired:)
I do enjoy taking pictures, and will post one or two sometime soon. Thanks for the welcome!
It truly is such a blessing to see you with us, Betty. We look forward to sharing with you and loving you through Christ our Lord.

Thank you Ruth Ann. It's good to meet people who love the Lord.
I thought I'd give some information about myself. I grew up in a Christian home, and received the Lord as my Saviour when I was very young. No regrets - so good to know the Lord through the years.
I am married to a wonderful Christian man, have three children, and six grandchildren. We're really enjoying all of them.
I'm probably going to retire in June, and am looking forward to spending some more time in photography. I've worked as a teacher, and am now an Assistive Technology consultant working in Special Education ... and have enjoyed working in this area.
I've enjoyed taking photos, and use a Canon T1i.
Well, Betty, you've found the right place on the internet!!
Welcome home. :)

Hi Betty!
It's lovely to be able to welcome you to :cp:
I've been away for a month and so now I'm going to try to get caught up with new folks and many, many posts on the site.

Thank you. I've been made to feel very welcome. I'm still exploring the site to see what all is here. It's been very uplifting.
Betty, I've been to your blog a few times, and you really need to post some of your bubble and drop shots here! They are fantastic and the I think the folks on this site will really enjoy seeing them. Alternatively, I suggest those of you who haven't yet visited Betty's blog, you're in for a real treat with some of the photographs she's taken. Just click on link below her name and gallery icon to take the short trip to her world!
Thanks - still learning :)
I was thinking about doing so, but work and some illness have slowed me down.
I still can't access my Gallery - are there other ways to put a photo up? I guess I've also been waiting for that to be fixed first. :)
Betty, I stole this from one of Jeanne Lee's responses to another member:
"you can post images directly from your computer by using the "Attach" feature - which is hidden under "Attachments and Other Options". Once you have navigated to the photo you want to post, go up above the little icons to the drop down menu and click on "inline fullsize attachment". (Of course, you need to have the photo resized on your computer to the limits of this site, before you go looking for it.)"
While you are posting, click on the Preview button below the text box you type in, and this will bring up more options, as well as the Attachments and Other Options button.
Such great helpful participants! Big Sky Ken, thanks for the information to refresh each of our minds.
:)
