Get ready! *** OCTOBER PHOTO CONTEST COMING SOON! ***

You know how you take a photo... camera, phone, doesn't matter... and you can look at that photo again and again and it makes you smile. It makes you have a warm feeling. It brings on a feeling of happiness. That's the theme this month. Post a photo (one for now.... we'll see how many entries we get and perhaps later allow two photos) that gives you this feeling.

Subject, locale, time, color/black/white... your choice. The photo makes you happy.

This month's theme: If I had to say something about this photo I posted, it would be 'This makes me happy, and I hope it will make you feel happy, too.'

We will begin accepting entries NEXT WEEK, OCTOBER 9.

The contest will run a few weeks and we will update the timeline.

As always, this info, the entries, the polls/preliminaries, results, rules, etc. are posted in (1) Photography group, (2) General Discussion (with permission) and (3) DU Lounge.

SO... make ME happy and go find your best, warmest, happiest photo you can.

Curt

By saying that.
As I walked along that little lake I kept stopping and taking pictures though I was hurrying to a bus that - should I miss it - would not come back for 30 minutes. The one you love, and so do I, was the last of 4 shots. And I made the bus. No, it is not that one.
I wanted something else, and I got it. Two of them, same feeling, should we have a chance to enter two.
