May Countdown Thread


Well, well, well...time got away from me. First, I was counting the days until the 15th so I could start this thread, and then, suddenly, I realize, I'm late! Ooops! Sorry, all. Summer has officially started here (no more school for the kids) and that means company, sleepovers, and just lots of general busy stuff for this Mama.

I see that they have picked up the pace on handing out the May EPs, so I hope that means they are busy at work prepping to pick the finalists and winners.

It's nice and toasty here in Texas, so I guess I'll grab a cool beverage and start waiting for results. Fingers crossed for us all!

Helpful hints for attaching photos into Forum Threads:
1) Sign into BP completely (name + password.)
2) If you have NOT YET entered the Contest today, you can use the "Photo ID" to pull an existing image from your Member Center into your reply to this thread (avoiding a duplicate image upload.) Get the Photo ID# from your Member Center, come to back this thread, click Respond, enter the text of your reply, then choose "1" from the images-to-attach drop-down. Click Submit; at the next screen populate the "Photo ID" box at the right. Skip the other fields on that screen.
3) If you HAVE ALREADY entered the Contest today before replying to this thread, you can't use the Photo ID method today. You can either wait until tomorrow to reply here (before your new Contest entry!) or, upload a new copy of the particular image (from your PC) into this thread. This produces a duplicate image in your Member Center; however, you don't have to make that duplicate visible in your Gallery.
4) If you're uploading a duplicate, maybe title it "For Forum" so it stands out in your Member Center, for easier housecleaning later... This can help direct viewers to find the original image in your gallery, when they want to leave a comment. Likewise, if you want to add a comment to a photo seen here, try to tell if it is a duplicate upload. As a courtesy, try to find the original image in the member's gallery and leave your comment there instead of on the duplicate---that way, if the duplicate is deleted later, the comment history isn't lost.

Good luck everyone!!!

May had some new entries and quite a few resubs. I'm tempted to pick my same favorite from last month (it really is one of my favorites of my baby girl), but...

instead, I'll try this re-edit of an older image of Kate. I can't believe this same little girl is now the teenager I have who likes to sleep late, and is starting to take lots of pics just like Mama.

oh, and my May entries are bookmarked by pics of my daughter starting with "My Dreamer" and going through "daydreams"

  Well, I think I only ended up with 2 EPs for the month, so I'm not sure my odds are too good (who know, really). Good luck everyone!

Inside the narrow sandstone slot canyons, the color transitions ranged from
shadowy purple-blues down low, to hot, sunlit orange-yellows up high;
combined with the undulating, carved shapes and forms, it was all beautiful and fascinating!

A tough one to pick... What was perhaps my top most-hopeful/favorite from my May entries was actually skipped over for an EP, so there's not much point in hoping it will go on... ;)
In that case, another favorite (from about 3 or 4 others I'm really crossing all my fingers on!) is this slot canyon wall shot.
Best of luck to everyone in the May results!
