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

Hello everyone,
I hope this post finds you all well and blessed.  I apologize for not posting for so long.... I have been busy with work, and enjoying the beautiful place that God has blessed me to call home.  I have also had some illness, but am on the mend.
It has been almost a year since I moved to Gunnison, Colorado.  August will be my 1st anniversary here.  I am still awed at how God has blessed me to live in what I call a photographer's paradise.  I pray always that I never take for granted living amidst such gorgeous country.
I have SO much to share!  But will start with some images from a recent outing.  I have been anticipating spring and summer very eagerly, and it's finally here!  Winters are long here, so when spring arrives, everyone sort of goes nuts, getting out with their jeeps, boats, bikes, kayaks, etc.  
Things have really greened up, and the runoff from the snow is awesome!
Hope you enjoy the images and are blessed.

This first image was taken in the San Juan mountains near Telluride, CO.  This is a view of 14,150 foot Mount Sneffels.  I spent some time here just sitting on my car and staring in awe.

"Summer Arrival in the San Juan Mountains"

This image and the 1st one were captured while I was driving through a huge ranch, owned by Ralph Lauren.  The public can access this land, as long as they don't step beyond private land boundaries.  I think there are 3 main roads that go through this ranch, it's huge.  What awesome views.  There are also hiking trails further up toward the mountains that the public can access.  I have maps and will be travelling.   ;D

"San Juans"

This last image was taken in May at these awesome falls.  The spring runoff was amazing.  This creek meanders peacefully through a meadow and then plunges over a cliff.  If there wasn't a sign on the road, you would never know it's there.  The morning I captured this image, it was early, about 6 am, and this is at about 10,000 feet.  It was COLD!  The wind and mist coming from the falls was awesome, but I had to keep putting my hands back in my coat pocket to warm them up.  I am going back to this location soon...things weren't quite green yet, but I'm sure it is now.  Still this was an awesome sight.

"North Clear Creek Falls"

That's it for now, but I have so much more to share!  Will post more later.
Blessings.

The others have summed it up quite well, no more to say except more, more, more. :excited:
