   Good afternoon hubbers. Here is my entry for the day in the photo gallery category: It's a cool collection of photos that I took and edited in the Photobucket special effects program. Don't throw your crummy photos away because it's amazing what you can do with them!:

    Hi everybody. This is my third entry in the category of photo galleries, and the third in a series of articles about photography in Paris. But this one doesn't look at the great buildings in the whole; it looks at photographing the detail - the statues, the engravings, the stained glass windows, ceiling art etc. I really appreciate the chance to promote the pages in this way. Hope you enjoy!

    I just posted a hub titled, "Photo Gallery of Salvation Army Mural & Hisoric Milford, Delaware," which is my home town. The Salvation Army Store looked like a drab white warehouse until the City of Milford, The Mispillion Art League and the Milford Museum collaborated on a project that created a stunning, block long mural which shows a pictorial history of Milford. The hub can be viewed at: http://happyboomernurse.hubpages.com/hu … aware?done .

    Here is a story for children.  I went back and forth trying to decide if I should put this story in the creative writing or the poetry category because, while it does rhyme, it is written to be a kid's story and not so much a poem.  At least that is the way I see it, and it is formatted accordingly.  I hope it is as enjoyable a read to you as writing it was to me.

       Welcome Shadesbreath..
       
       I'm not sure that any of us can confirm or advise you if you are 'IN'.
       
       For some reason.. we do not have the ability to see if our works are 'IN' as there are no confirmations or article lists of what was submitted and what was or wasn't disqualified (for whatever reason). Just a 'running' number.
       
       It's a random thing I believe.. Is hope not a random thing also?

          It's not a random thing. We just culled out entries that did not properly use/cite images and meet the minimum word requirement. Hubs that were copied, not tagged properly, or categorized properly were also left out, since they didn't show up in our contest reports to begin with.
          So Shadesbreath, that Hub should be fine!

          Here's a dumb question for you...if I do all my photographs with my little digital camera, do I cite on each one that I took the photo?  I see some Hubbers do that.  I assumed you only had to cite the photo if taken from another source.   Let me know.....thanks!

    Here's my latest entry, a tongue in cheek, slightly politically incorrect comedy about a group of travel agents visiting a small African village.  Thanks so much for reading everyone, and for coming to my other hubs.

    Also I think I might have forgotten to post my last one, getting lost, both in time, and with time running out before the coach leaves on a day trip to Venice.

    I tried to enter another poem but when I tried to publish it, it set off duplicate content filters.

       Yikes! Had you published it somewhere else at some point in the past?

          Never before published and was just finished this morning.  It has been cleared though and I just published it and announced it three posts above.
          
          
          Bible verses I am sure is what set off the filter, but not positive about that even.  Could also be the warning I have been putting on my poems about taking them.
