Calling All PHOTOGRAPHERS!

Essential Oils, Photography by Roxy Bentsen Faulkner

Just a quick note to say I discovered the coolest online photo submission competition complete with categories, challenges and awards.  My new camera sits lonely and virtually untouched in it’s sleek, black, pleather bag longing to be handled and familiar to me. This new website is just what the Doctor ordered.  Looking through all of the photos really inspire me to do what I set out to do in the beginning.  Learn to take beautiful photographs.

I do hereby pledge, from this day forward, to spend at least one day per week getting to know my Canon PowerShot SX60 HS, to find my instruction manual and actually go through it page by page endeavoring to learn all SX60 HS camera intricacies, features and settings. Additionally, I pledge to post my pictures here no matter how infantile, amateurish or boring as it gives me accountability and you too will at least get a laugh.

Without further adieu, as I am certain you are on pins and needles by now, the name of the site is GuruShots!  Coincidence, I think not.  The cosmic photography gods have been beaconing from cyber space to another guru.  Job well done!  Enter a new chapter and yet another category to my blog.

Let me leave you with one thought on the subject.

UPDATE:  I used some old photos to try and get my feet wet!

    By the way, you ended your last comment in my blog with the term “pobrecito.” That’s the kind of emotional reaction I have always sought to elicit from women in order to unabashedly, continually take advantage of them. A wise pig taught me that tactic when I was a little boy in the farm. If you want more details please read my blog dubbed “The limping pig.” Un grosso baccione. Arrivederci!

    Bon giorno mia cara Roxy. Are you still in convalescence status? You must be ’cause you have not read, let alone commented, my latest blog on Cannabis. Un baccione. Arrivederci!

      I just opened my laptop. My son is still here visiting from college and I do not get to see him much because of his grad school and intern schedule. Allow me to take a moment as I would love to see your post on one of my favorite topics. 😊😊
