4. Thank you to all participants.

You always make me so happy when you post your photos. I like to imagine that I am there in the picture and what I'm doing And even who I might be.

Your images always make me forget all the daily strife for awhile.

I also just like to vote in polls haha. But every photograph is stellar and it's always so hard to choose when they all deserve to win

I value your compliment. The place in the photo is in a park right in our small town...we are very lucky.

8. Perfect! What a great way to celebrate the new Blue Wave in Alabama!

Fabulous photos - I have 4' of snow!

[Curmudgeoness]

9. Sounds like a good time for a winter photo! nt

[raven mad]

10. Well, maybe not a wave (interior Alaska isn't known for it's beaches).

How about this instead!

11. Did you take that shot?

If you did, you have to enter it in the Winter contest (next March). What a fabulous shot!

[raven mad]

12. No, I'm not that talented. A friend took it in 2013.

She lets me use her stuff because I can't figure out where to put my shots to post them here!

[mnhtnbb]

13. There are any number of free hosting services

where you upload your photo to their site and they give you a link that you post here.

Info on some of them here: https://www.democraticunderground.com/103659987

I have been using http://postimages.org/ because it's very easy. You upload to the site and then copy and paste the direct link. Really easy.

14. Now all I have to do is figure out how to download them from my camera!

LOL! I am truly illiterate at this - my hubby takes the really great ones. Ones I'd share for everyone - there's a raven avalanche........... hysterically funny birds, ice and snow, a frosted fur fling (one of the kitties being obnoxious), etc. I'm going to save this for sure!
