My Second Photo Challenge

OK, so most of you know that I am like obsessed with rain.  And it was RAINING today!!! YAY.  So, I ran out with my camera and got some cute pics.

Love this one, and I didn't even edit it!



You can just barely see the umbrella in the background






Now, to announce the category of my second photo challenge... *drum roll...* Raindrops!  So you can do a Macro of a raindrop, or falling raindrops or a reflection of something on a raindrop, or pretty much anything with raindrops. And if you don't have a macro setting on your camera you can do just a picture of rain. Try to be creative!  Once you've taken the picture (or it could be a picture you've already taken) post it on your blog (or you can use your Flickr account) and enter below by clicking the "add your link" button.  Or if you don't have a blog (or Flickr) you can send me the picture at raininthecountry@gmail.com.  OK, are you ready for some exciting news?  The winner of this photo challenge gets a prize!  A pack of beautiful cards made by me (they are good quality, and are very pretty, they don't look like something you made when you were in kindergarten I promise =) )  Now, if you win and are uncomfortable with emailing me your address, that's fine.  You will still win the challenge of course but the prize will just go to the person in second place.

Here are the rules:
1. The picture must be taken by you and YOU alone!
2. You must follow my blog ( I mean don't follow my blog if you absolutely hate it...but if you hate it why are you reading this?..) =P
3. The contest starts today and ends next Monday (June 18th)
4. You must have fun!!!! That is an order!
5. You may edit, but don't go overboard
6. When you post on your blog please include the link so that others can enter too! Or instead you can put my photo challenge button.




If you have any questions don't be shy, just ask me in the comments below.

I Am So So SO Sorry!

I am so very sorry I haven't posted.  And unfortunately I won't be able to post for about another week, because I have finals and stuff, so I have been/will be really busy.  And to all the people who have sent me emails and I haven't responded I AM SO SUPER SORRY.   =P  But once I finish up with finals I should have some really cool posts coming up, so stay tuned for that.

MY FIRST PHOTO CHALLENGE!

OK, I've decided to host a photo challenge. Here's How it works.  Post your picture in a blog post on your blog.  Then click the "add your link" button at the end of this post.  It's that simple!!  And if you don't have a blog, you can use your flickr account. And if you have neither of these, and absolutely HAVE to, you can e-mail me your entry at raininthecountry@gmail.com.   OK, hope that makes sense, if you have any more questions, feel free to ask me in the comments.
Category: Animals.  Pets, wildlife, fish, any animal you can think of.
One of my dog's puppies. =)

The contest opens today, and ends next Saturday (May 5th).
So here are the rules:
1.  You may enter one photo and it has to fit within the given category (animals)
2.  In your blog post make sure you include the link to my blog so that other may enter the contest too!
3.  You MAY edit your photo, but just don't go to much over the top.
4.  Your entry HAS to belong to YOU!!  You may NOT use anyone else's photo but your own.
5.  Have Fun!!!!!

Then next Saturday I'll do a post with all of your entries, and you can vote on which ones you like best!

God Bless!!!
