    Ok...well I might rethink these...inspiration on these should be telling a story behind the images we take...but not sure these are what you want.

    1. What gets me through are dreams of you....

    Exactly Joyce! Those are great.

    Hey photogs, the photos don't need to have "deep" meanings either... it can just be a simple messages...

    For instance, I took a photo of a tree that... well I'll just show you:

    580868059_5XYdJ-S.jpg

    The message here: "I can see right through you."

    Even simpler than that is possible -go take a picture of a sign... better be a good picture though mwink.gif

    I'm really looking forward to seeing all the posts for this! iloveyou.gif

    Two for the Price of One
    These two were on Sale...we got two for the price of one almost 13 years ago. Pretty soon we will get rid of them - they're all ready at the rolling the eyes stage at everything you say. Only six more years until they're off to college. The road is going to be bumpy. They all ready know everything. So now, "Buy One Get One Free"
