Hi welcome , hope you can enjoy yourself. into bird photograpy not professinaly just love them.
My wife has been feeding the birds around the house this year on a regular basis. We have a lot of purple and yellow finches, and a lot of hummingbirds too. I suspect she'll be borrowing my camera on a regular basis. She likes to do simple point and shoot so I'll store the camera like that.

My photographic plans run the gamut from human portraits, animal pics (I have two Pomeranians), to landscapes, to architecture, to celestial events, and much macro photography.

ha, actually that was horrible i guess lol. Anyway, i try to stick to the main ones, if that helps any
I take a hard stance on acronyms. Off and on throughout my engineering career of been a technical writer and illustrator. One thing I've learned about acronyms is that you have to write with your audience's comprehension in mind. So I only use acronyms when I know my audience will know what I'm saying without spelling it out.

That's just me being me. I don't want to change the way anyone writes here. NTMYT.

I am having some tech problems which are going to restrict my writng somewhat. The new antivirus software installed on our network is blocking CB, while allowing access to all other sites I frequent. Anybody who has written me will be acknowledged as soon as I can outside of my company's network.

I know someone from another Christian forum who used a very similar avatar. Probably a coincidence. I ran into two people on different Christian forums with the same unusual name who were polar opposites.

The antivirus program at work blocks this website. But my phone and home computers are okay. That's where I'm at now, expecting an ice storm tonight. I'm taking a day of vacation just in case.

I have been an active member of at least four other Christian forums, but for one reason or another, I was led (by the Holy Spirit) to leave. I hope this is where I can put some roots down.

I've been a non-Denominational Christian for about 36 years, agnostic for awhile, but I was brought up Roman Catholic and considered myself a RC until about age 20. A near-death experience sent me on a search for spiritual meaning but I came up empty. Then the Holy Spirit spoke to me through a man not even talking to me about his salvation experience, and at that moment, I knew he was speaking God's truth. That was about 36 years ago, give or take. God saved me through his testimony and I don't even know his name. But I fully expect to meet him in Heaven.

A nice testimony on a testimony there through the power of the Holy Spirit, welcome to this forum.

Where are you?
Are you still having logging in problems?
Or are you back posting on your old Site again?

Bless you...Helen

I give uo for now. I can't edit my posts.
Hi there James.....Give it time....anyone on the forum can verify that I too had endless problems at first, but I'm getting there lol....My software also tried to prevent me from coming on to the forum, so at first I used the 'allow temporarily' button every single time I came on, but a friend helped me, so it's set on allow all the time, so that's really neat...I am certain someone on the forum has the know how to help....just ask...all the best in getting this going...:)
