    Monica, I love you edit! You have such a subtle but amazing touch with your photos. They never look overdone! They're always just right! I'm so jealous!
    I loved the winning edit from last week! Wow, what a great job!

    I saw your link up over at Alysa's and wanted to come by and see what's up.

    People always ask me if I edit my photo's and I laugh at that because I assume that these days everyone edits their photo's.

    I love what you did with your shot.

    OK, first of all... where have I been? This is such a fun meme! I scrolled through almost all of them and even found some new favorite blogs. Secondly. I'm so joining in this next Thursday! I was thinking of sharing some before and afters on my blog today and didn't. SO, I'm saving them for next week. Are there rules??

    Okay, I was lurking in the shadows until I read your welcome page and you told me not to do that! so, here I am! I already love your blog in just the short time I've visited and I have signed up as a follower. I'm just learning about photography on my own and trying to figure it all out. I love the Lord, and write about him a lot too. I have two blogs. Anyway, it' nice to meet you. I'll be back!
