Welcome Pamela.

To answer your question, your 'UFO' is a dragonfly that zipped into the perfect location within your line of sight when you snapped the image.

LOL! Wish I had realized that before I called it "something approaching" in the comment, James!!

I'm commenting here going back my 24....

Sabine, I'm doing fine, thanks for asking, but no worries....I love your Chocolate series!!! You are a great foodie Photographer for sure! You do seem to be passionate about it and when ever anything makes one passionate...look out...it can't help but go well! All the best to you in that endeavor. And, commenting intermittently is certainly alright in my book.. :)

@Group...with Artsy growing and MMI rapidly growing with features submitted in huge amounts daily, I get very little time to do my own thing, and participate where I need to on the threads.....so please carry on you all are doing great and I will do my best to jump in when I can.....need to have time for a life too! :)

Denise...so glad you are alright...have family in Garden Grove and they felt it big time....also what's up with Quake ins there...anything like Fla....required to have flood ins? Flood ins is super high in Fla...was wondering? Glad you're good, stay safe.

Congrats Marcello on the sale!!!

Happy Belated BDay Andy!

Get better Clare...sniff, sniff...hate when that happens!

Thanks Lee for the great support and work you are doing for the group! Glad the back is better...
Also, great info on the hashtags #....I always try to insert # 's with keywords in google for all of the work I promote there in this thread.

Congratulations Andy on the sale, well deserved as well!!! And thank you for the FB info on links

Clare, we all can't wait for your new Camera!!!! Yay!! What fun and anticipation!!

All caught up with all of you since #13....happy to be in #14 with all of you...Enchanted by the work herein!

Mine today is a photograph in Digital Paintography....titled "Fish Eggs" Reposting from the last post on 13

repeating this here on the new link:

Lee and Barbara, I'm not even sure how to enable pinterest but will get my hubby to help me. Also, I just commented and liked photos posted since last Friday but did not "share" on facebook (mainly because it would be too overwhelming and I wasn't clear if it was required.) I can also promote on twitter. Exactly what is required?

Really do appreciate all the work you guys do to promote each other's work and will happily do the same.

I really did think that was what it was James (dragonfly) but was so surprised at how it appeared in the image.

Pamela...Pinterest enabling...Hover your name in the right top corner > click Behind the Scenes > Click Sharing buttons> check them all >Save changes

Barbara...hoping you are still around today to answer the promotion and requirement question. Thanks!

Got it Lee, thanks. I did go back and tweet or facebook share everyone back to Sunday.

Sorry but I have one more question. When sharing on pinterest, what do I type in the description? Or, am I doing something incorrectly?

Pamela...I copy the information rich text from the description on FAA and paste it in the description on Pinterest. This is from Barbara's image just above:

"Fish Eggs" DigiArt Paintography by BChichester
Excellent decorative wall art for commercial or home....great for a tropical retreat or environment.

My entire routine is that I share it in G+ first to add the hashtags and copy that description for the other platforms, then it looks like this:

#artforchildren #fishart #barbarachichester

Either way will work and will connect to the artist. I use the hashtags for search purposes, as they are clickable and will bring up the image whenever that search is used.

Happy Tuesday, folks! A new piece today...

@group... I flew to Maui again... I am on the beach enjoying 80 degrees and salty water... there will be another series of maui stuff...

but... wait a minute... I'm just dreaming...

Happy April 1st!!! :-)

Well, you had me going! Happy dreams on April 1, Marcello!

@ Maria...how do you keep being able to change your business page name?? I tried and they wouldn't let me without all kinds of copies of legal stuff to prove I had legitimately changed the biz name!

caught up!

Hi friends,

I need your kind reviews (going to the link below,) to help improve my Google local presence and visibility online.
Thanks!

Marcello.

In there I'm promoting a website I use for engravings online : https://pendantdesign.com


THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS :-)

Mine for today http://fineartamerica.com/featured/-tranquil-skies-robyn-king.html?newartwork=true Marcello I tried to go to your link but it would not connect don't know why?? I will try again later in case it is a glitch. I figured out the pinterest button finally but also realized that I don't have watermarks enabled on my work on FAA and do not want them being posted on pinterest until I can change that. I checked it out last night and now have them enabled for my new posts to automatically watermark them. Unfortunately I can't find a way to watermark my other images that are already on site without doing them individually. If anyone knows of a way I could do them all at once let me know otherwise I will have to go in one at a time and with over a hundred images that is going to take awhile. For now it is on hold until I can get this problem ironed out but I am not giving up just have to keep pushing forward until I get them all watermarked. If someone here knows an easier way any insight would definitely be appreciated:)) Have a wonderful night everyone!!!

thanks Lee for all the help, I used the description the artist wrote on most when I promoted on pinterest and if that was too long I use the tags. Hope that's ok.

Lee, I can change the name but the URL is the same, you can change the " URL" only once. I had to do it because I'm creating another page with my name.
The page where I'm sharing FAA art work, was and old one I used before for Photoshop, I wanted to keep my old friends and everybody knows me as "Marian", that's the reason why I tried different names.

If you never changed the page name before you have only one chance to do it again, just go to "update page info"

caught up! Wonderful stroll thru the Art Gallery again today.

Andy, hope you feel better soon!

Missing Maya, Mark and Denise, hope to see them again soon!

mine for today, an old one that needs some attention.

peace

@ Belinda, I don't think I ever get tired of these chocolates. They are so yummy. I even don't feel guilty as they are all dark chocolates.

Just dropping in! I think about you guys everyday. I haven't done any art. I found a new apartment, moving in May 16. I thought at first I might want some kind of senior retirement place but it just took looking at one to know I didn't want that - ever! It's a whole different mindset, like admitting you were giving up too much. I decided I really needed a garage even tho I don't have a car. I had one before attached to my studio space and I went back and forth a lot - so I found exactly what I wanted. 2 bedroom / 2 bath with attached garage - 2nd bedroom will be my studio. the french doors and both bedroom big windows all face the back which is adjacent to a forest conservation preserve so I expect to see deer, fox, raccoons, maybe coyote, all kinds of birds - who knows maybe even Bigfoot! For the first time in a decade I feel like I am moving forward - for too long my feet felt stuck in concrete. I mean to get back to Artsy Fartsy one of these days. I saw where Denise requested my second blog address - it's for straight wives of gay husbands. There seems to be almost an epidemic of us coming out of our own closets now, even though we never understood that was where we existed. Its easier now for gay men to live their authentic lives but their wives are left to pick up the pieces and try to understand how they spent their lives in love with a man who never really existed - like grieving a ghost. Here is my straight wives blog for Denise and anyone else who is interested in my story. I've been busy packing but I'll try to check back in soon!

I guess I can't fix Frank's link. For what ever reason it doesn't work.

Maureen, it's so nice to see you stopping by and knowing that you are moving into a new place. It looks like you are taking a big leap for the good. Way to go girl!

I'm trying to fix Frank's link!

Here's mine!

Lovely artwork. Worn out today trying to deal with car problems as the battery (2 yrs old) is being drained. Can't complain, the pool old dear has 200,000 miles on it. No diagnosis yet.

See you tomorrow!
