Flickr Fun

Flickr has been a fun place for me to put up some pictures that I want to share with others.

In December I was notified that the Nashville Schmap group put my Bass Pro Shop picture on a short list to
be considered for publication in their 10th edition.

Today, I received confirmation that they have used it. A very nice start to the New Year...

I will only be receiving exposure for my pictures, but I am thankful ...

Below is the  e-mail  I got today announcing my good fortune.
You've been sent a Flickr Mail from Emma J. Williams:

That is very cool. My wife dabbles in photography and she would love to have a picture she took posted in something like that. Congrats again.

Blessed - Thanks! We did have nice Christmas celebrations after the weather gave us a break and a loved one returned home from a stint in a rehab after surgery.
