My dear sister is always trying to "get me out there" (wink) and she has asked me to send some of my photos to the National Geographic Photo Contest. And so I obediently have done so. The pic here is one of 7 that I've sent in. If you'd like to see the rest --please do! and give them high ratings!---you can go to this link:

and from there you can get information on the contest in case you'd like to join yourself!
