Alright, folks...we have our first photo contest entry...since it's such an excellent photograph, I just thought I'd share it to get you guys motivated.
This photo is by my friend Julia. Isn't she excellent?
So, how do I interpret this photo? (Remember, our theme is "What is True Beauty?") I think it reflects it in a few ways- first, it is simple. Very simple. And yet, in such simplicity, there is a beauty far greater than that of the flashy pop-culture we see all around us. Secondly, it is God's beautiful creation. Look at the rich colors, the intricate petals, the deep, dark center. It truly is a remarkable witness to God's creation.
Great job Julia...hope this gets some other girls motivated to get out there cameras and go find something beautiful to photograph!

BTW, this is the only entry in the contest so far. We need some more entries to make this contest work! Rubies, you have until the end of 2009 to submit your pictures!
Wow Julia, that's amazing!! *sigh* No way I'll win. =P But, I'll try... sadly, we don't have many flowers up here this time of year... =)

But, Lucy, you still have a LOT of beautiful things to take pictures of...it' doesn't have to be a flower!
Thanks guys! :D I'm sure I'm not the only one who can take a decent picture.....
were do we post our picters?
Well, Miss Me, this contest is over. However, if you'd be interested, I would think about doing another photo contest soon...
Also, if you go to HSLDA's website (a homeschool site), they have a photo contest that looks pretty cool every year- not sure when it's happening, though.
Okay, Thanks!
