Club Adventist
Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don’t see things the way you do.
And don’t jump all over them every time they do or say something you don’t agree with
– even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department.
Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently. Romans 14.1: The Message

That pepper photo is just awesome! Very sensual. I really want to reach out and run my hands over it.

I agree. Weston made some outstanding pictures of the peppers. This one was actually part of a series of photographs. I have one of his series of shells as well, which I'll post.

He and Ansel Adams were friends and had similar approaches to photography.
