John Ducroiset submitted his unique
picture for this month’s Photo of the
Month, and regular contributor Marsha
Gellert shared her pictures, which are
lovely as always. Thank you both!
So it certainly seems that we skipped
fall altogether and it wasn’t exactly inspirational
for taking pictures. The changes
in colors of the trees were “meh” this
year and then the leaves pretty much just
disappeared. I do hope folks aren’t discouraged,
and I urge everyone to snap
a picture or two and send them in…
remember, you don’t have to be Ansel
Adams!!!
A reminder about the contest rules:
The photographer must be a resident of
Cryder Point, and all photos must of the
property or of a view from the property.
They also must be current, that is, taken
no more than a couple of months before
you submit them.
Any description of where you were on
the property, the day of week or time of
day…any details that you can provide
which bring your neighbors into the moment
of the photo…are eagerly welcomed.
Submit your pictures to jdavis@qns.
com and yours might be selected to be
featured in the paper. Please be sure to
put “Cryder Point Photo” in the subject
line of your email and include the full
name of the photographer and an approximate
date of the picture.
