About My husband said "watch the rule of thirds and the horizon line and you can get the perfect award winning picture". So I drew the horizon line and the rule of thirds on my lense. Now I have the perfect picture, where is my award? There is no color or other adjustments to the picture.

Thank you Meg........without humor life would be very sad. Glad you like this one. Even after all these years Doyle's still shakes his head at some of my comments.

Thank you Ray. Now two people have told me I can break the rules. Think I should beat Doyle for telling me never break the rules. Wait I can't beat him, he has the other lenses. Your comments are always so uplifting, thank you. Heather might come around (I did).

Doyle you LIED to me. You said always keep horizon level and always always keep the rule of third.....why would you lie to me? I am so crushed.

Marlyce Chastain Marlyce Chastain   {K:4071} 6/18/2006
Rules can be broken? Doyle never told me that. Oh what fun I can have now. Wonder if I can get the lines of my lense now? Thanks Bruce.

..............CONGRATULATIONS.....................

A well deserved award my dear Marlyce for a lovely landscape and a wonderful touch of humour in the 'about'. It is always good to keep track of the rule of thirds but I am often guilty of ignoring rules if the subject before me can't or won't co-operate. It happens!! Once again, very well done to you Marlyce....It's great to 'see' a very talented husband and wife team....I do wish my lovely Heather would join in more. Very best wishes to you......Ray

congrats for the lens! and i look forward to the next humor shot as well as new work from you...

(BTW,you can drop the MS. as i only changed it to that recently because men in other countries thought GAYLE was a man's name which proved to be troublesome at times);>

Bruce Harper   {K:5305} 6/16/2006
Well Marlyce you've now mastered the rule of thirds bit, and been awarded for it - congratulations - but rules are made to be broken so I'm now looking forward to seeing the 'broken rule of thirds' image ;)

Now Gayle! Somebody's stirring up trouble . . . Oh, wait . . . I DID have that ready as her award just in case BUT . . . apparently it wasn't needed! She got her award so back it went. (Good things happen when she listens to ME!!) Oh well, at least my heart was in the right place! :P

What a classic Marlyce! The horizon line cracks me up the most!! LOL!

Couldn't resist awarding you myself with a little something, you know, just in case the judges don't come to the party on this one... ;) Have sent a copy to Proud Hubby as well...

Cheers, keep up the great work and humour!

Gayle, I am so glad you liked it. I will have to check the closet when I get home, but I won't tell him what I am looking for. (Only problem, he just got me the Nikon 50D---and we did look at the 200)
