Theme is – Habitat and this week I am going to post images, nothing more nothing less. The theme it is so heartwarming to begin with it does not need works. I just felt joy looking at the images Tina showed us. Such beautiful and moving photos. I hope I will be able at least one smile from you when looking at this post, I just concentrated on animals. I had so much fun looking for these photos. I had to stop, because I found out that I have just few photos 🙂 of animals and as it is, I posted once aging way too many.
Thanks Egídio. He gave us a chance to learn something new, and while we may not have heard of it, we were happy to see that many of us were using it anyway 😊. It’s always exciting to test our skills and knowledge in a friendly challenge like this. The creative solutions and different approaches showcased by the participants were truly inspiring. Egidio’s initiative brought us together to celebrate our passion for learning and growing, and for that, I am truly grateful.
As in previous years, the Lens-Artists team will be on hiatus for the month of July. There will be no challenge on the 6th, but the rest of the month will be led by several amazing Guest Hosts. They include:
July 13: Leanne of Leanne Cole explores TOURIST ATTRACTIONS

The Lens-Artist team will be back on August 3 when Patti once again leads us on her Pilotfish Blog. Until then keep smiling ☺
