~DAYS GONE BY~
Uploaded: August 05, 2011
One of my favorite shots of the Holy Cross Abbey in Canon City, Colorado. This used to be a thriving abbey with priests living on the premises. Through time, the abbey needed to turn a profit so they started making wine. Holy Cross Abbey produces award wining wines year after year here in Colorado. Sadly, there are no priests anymore but this building, still owned by the Church, continues to be a place of worship, and celebrations for members of the community.

OH MY GOSH! How did I miss this and why did you not tell me? Andlook at you with the Topaz filters! "The Wall" is a spectacular find and the angle is just right. I want to come to see you and park right in front. Please be sure to let me know when you win something, I am so slow getting to all of the photos that you must help me out. CONGRATULATIONS.......Merna #1412376Merna L. Nobile October 02, 2011

No worries. There are things I write on threads that I wish I could go back and edit. Lots of misspellings and such. I was caught off guard at first because I could not, for the life of me, bring up an image that I had called, "The Wall". Too funny. I appreciate your remarks come Finalist and Placed Winners time. Would have answered earlier but our BP Photo club that we have known each other for three years online decided to have a Las Vegas meet-up this fall. So we were all out having a wonderful time. Yesterday I slept nearly twelve hours and I am nearly back to normal. It was so much fun to actually meet people we had only known online for so long. #9715973Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
