June Countdown Thread

Welcome to the June Countdown Thread

To add to the fun here in BP please join us in the June Countdown!

There are so many fabulous photo posted on BP. So many very inspiring works of time and talent. I like this thread because its purpose is for each of us to show case your individual photo that you believe is your best or that you feel is most representative of your inner self. So... let's see your personal best!
*If you are a regular here you know what to do.
**If you are new to this thread, take some time to read our helpful hints below and join in the fun.
*** If you found yourself here because you are lost.... Hmmm.., Don't worry, this is not the Hotel California, you can escape!
Some helpful hints for attaching photos into a BP Forum Thread, if you're unfamiliar with the process:
1) Sign into BP. IF YOU HAVEN'T entered the Contest for today, you can use the "Photo ID" method to pull an existing image (from your Member Center) into your reply here.
a. Jot down the PhotoID # of the photo you wish to share. To determine your PhotoID, go to the little Pancakes icon, then click “My Photos”, then “Manage/Enter.” The PhotoID is right below the number.
b. Go to the Countdown Contest thread. Click “Respond” at the bottom of the page.
c. Type in whatever you wish; e.g., “Here’s my Fav image for the month.”
d. Click the “Select” button below the text input box, and select “1.” Toggle on “Notify” box if you wish to be notified. Click “Submit.”
e. The Image Uploader appears. On the right-hand side, you’ll see an input box for the PhotoID (from step 1a). Type it in then click “submit your photo.” Then, return to the forum thread and you’ll see your photo.
2) IF YOU HAVE ALREADY entered the Contest for today, you can't use the Photo ID method *today*. Either wait until tomorrow to reply here first, or upload a copy of the image (from your PC) and attach to this thread. This produces a duplicate image in your Member Center; however, you don't have to make that duplicate visible in your Gallery.
3) If you're uploading a duplicate, I suggest titling it "For Forum" so it stands out in your Member Center, for easier housecleaning later on. This can also help nudge BP viewers to go find the original image in your gallery, if they want to leave a comment. Likewise, if you want to add a comment to a photo seen here, first try to tell if it is a duplicate upload. As a courtesy, try to find the original image in the member's gallery and leave your comment there instead of on the duplicate... which may one day be deleted.

With the felt need to be home bound I did some abstract photography. Here are two that thought worthy to enter:

Thank for hosting this thread Errick.

Here are a couple of my favorites for June.

One of the best Great Blue Heron pictures that I have taken.

A nice rose picture. My mom was a Consulting Rosarian for over 30 years and at one time we had over 550 roses on our property. I am guessing but I think I shot over a thousand pictures of roses with Film and a lot more then that with digital.

	1000 Photos Later I seriously was challenged by the whole idea of choosing an appropriate shutter speed for various images. For this attempt, I honestly took over a thousand photos trying to achieve a good water drop. Of course, it's easy to take several hundred in just a few minutes with continuous shoot mode going. I used a shutter speed of 1/2500 and f stop 16. I took this outside under the blazing sun to have sufficient light for the high shutter speed. Jacquie Palazzolo

Thanks again, Errick! I always enjoy seeing everyone's picks. Here's mine. I had a few that I like, but this one was the hardest to capture so I'm a little partial. :)
