We've got a great page going and looking for more!

Howdy Ya'll,
 
Debbie put a note up last week for artists to share their best flower pictures.  Debbie and I posted a few, but we're reminding everybody here.  I'm into a black and white thing now and maybe next week we'll put out a call for your best nature B&Ws or monochromes.  For now, let's warm up the little bit of winter left with your best and brightest florals!
 
We'd love to see you over at Best Nature Photos.  Come by to browse the images, leave your comments and if you have a foavorite shot, download it for all to share.

Best always, Randy

Hi Randall...thanks for the reminder!
 
I added a photo, though it's linked to my newsletter because I didn't have access to my network when I posted and I was afraid I'd forget to post if I waited.
 
Hope it's okay!

Thank you Norma and Doreen.  Also thanks Doreen, when you said link it reminded me what I forgot earlier.
 
Anybody that posts a picture, remember to add a link to your card store as well as any of your websites, like Zazzle or Red Bubble.  Doreen is a pro at that, so follow her example.  I know several people who check out the facebook page and aren't artists here, so you never know!
 
Hope you're all doing well and getting through these cold months in good health!
 
Best always, Randy
 
P.S.  Doreen, Just saw your newsletter - Perfect timing with our theme and some great tips for all photographers.  I love the way you simplify things so it's easy to follow and understand.  I forget sometimes that people don't know the difference of an apeture from a shutter speed, and just love to take pictures with their point and shoot cameras.  This newsletter is a prime example of your teaching skills and information that anyone can get some great pointers from.

Beautiful bird, Peggy!  
 
Actually the florals are only a suggestion, you can put up anything at any time.  Debbie was just trying to warm things up a bit with some images that embraced spring and summer.  
 
Since you're my photography loving neighbor, maybe we could take a day soon and hit Mission Trails with our cameras before the creek dries down to nothing.  Already the flowers are blooming like crazy and another week or two the lilacs will be in full bloom.  And with the February rains and the ones were going to get this month, the desert wildflowers will be amazing in a couple of weeks.
 
Just an idea to get us away from the usual, you and your dogs and me and the cars.  Sometimes you have to get away from your norm and I don't know how many dogs you've shot, but if it's as many cars as I have...!  Of course a dog has a lot more personality than a hunk of steel and fiberglass!  lol
 
Best Always,  Randy

Lj,
We'd love to share our desert flowers with you.  Another month or two and your NY winter will be forgotten and nature will be singing.  I love it there, for the beauty spring and fall always bringing!  
As the grass is always greener on the other hill, you're always welcome here if you're ever out this way.  It only takes an outsider to point out the beauty that I miss, being in it every day!
Best always, Randy

Great Randall!  I have it pending in the regular storefront. Once it's live I'll get active on that page.  
 
I would LOVE to do a photo outing. Are you ever available on Mondays?  If we work well together maybe we can make it a monthly (or every other month) thing. I used to do a lot of exploring with my camera 20 years ago. But to be honest I just don't feel safe out alone with all that expensive equipment these days. A shooting buddy would be the perfect answer (and the local photo meetup group usually dies weekend outings - prime income time for me).  
 
And I have to disagree with you . . . Cars DO have character lol!
 
Ps- if shooting together is enjoyable, we'll have to put Lake Elsinore on the schedule andnmeet Naty!

I added my Hawk to your page.  I have some florals to add, too, from a recent outing to Mission Trails Park.  Thanks for a great share page!
