You are quite Welcome Mary! It is an honor for me that you like them so much and want to have them on your wall.

If you have them printed commercially tell them that the photos have been saved in Adobe RGB (1998) color scheme. That way you will get a perfect match to the colors of the photo.

Richard you need to get ahold of Jigzone and sell them some pictures! I do jigsaws on there all the time and they don't have anything near as fine as your photos of flowers!

Thanks GPR - the flower are so beautiful! Hey is that engine steam-powered or is it really the biggest PV mod ever?

 

[grandpawrichard]

I wondered how long it would be before someone caught that! I figured the guy running it was Vapeing V4L's!

Thanks for the idea Mary Kay! I'll try that out real soon.

Monday and Tuesday I will be tied up. I'll be teaching Archery to Cub Scouts at a local Scout Camp. In two days they plan on having me teach 250 kids archery. I can hardly wait! It will be my 3rd. year in a row at the camp and I know I'll enjoy every minute of it! (photos will follow. )

i need to get back into archery...but funds are too tight now to buy all the startup gear...V4L kinda wipes out my cash right now

Back in the day..or century I should say, I dated the Florida Jr. Archery Champion. He tried to teach me with that crazy 6 string guitar thing he called a bow. The bruise on my arm took 3 weeks to heal!
My hubby taught me on his plain ol' bow and I did just fine..but I am not sure where the arrow went!

 

[grandpawrichard]

Mary Kay,
You just need the right person to teach you how to shoot a Compound Bow!

My Top 4 archers from today’s 125 Cub Scouts that went through my archery range:

Their shooting earned them bonus shots at my 3D Turkey Target. This is how they did:

All of the Boys did Awesome and we all had a Blast! These 4 boys out did everyone today! I was really proud of them because they have never shot a bow before, so they Listened and did Exactly what I told them to do!

Richard - what a lovely way to spend your day. You are a very giving person and these kids are very lucky to have you as their teacher. Hope the weather stays nice for you during camp....

Look how proud they are of themselves.
GPR I love the flower pictures too. Everytime you post some I show my husband 'cause he likes to photograph flowers close up. His aren't nearly as lovely as yours tho...(hint hint hint I'm redecorating the bedroom)

Nana,
I'm always just a PM or an Email Away! I have approximately 165,000 photos saved on my computer, my secondary hard drive, my external hard drive and a 2 foot pile of CD's and DVD's! If we can't find what you need in that mess, the photo has not been taken!
