Some pics of my now 5 yr old granddaughter who I am occasionally fortunate enough to catch at the right moment.
Not in chronological order.
Alas, seems like a Photo Gallery post.
After observing a quite embarrassing exchange with a brand new member who dared to pist some photographs in an introductory post here yesterday, I went on a search to find the actual posted written rules forbidding photographs in this forum. I looked in all obvious spots for a specific ruling. I intentionally omitted looking anywhere that required any level of mind reading or ExtraSensory Perception. I found nothing. Nada. Zilch.
In fact, in the rules for this section, the very first specific instruction I found covered not only "How to post a picture," but also how to "Store Original," in order to post it with higher resolution.
My intent here is not to pick a fight. I'm sure this post is well along a path of being moved. But if this forum is to survive, it is time to start focusing on what matters. Photograps are generally not evil on a photography forum.

Excellent observation! But, I think we have to expect general negativity from certain members.

Expecting but not accepting...and most of us know who they are.
Enjoy your granddaughter. They grow up too fast.
Absolutely great photos !
Lovely set of images of your lovely Granddaughter.
Dave.
What a lucky grandfather you are to have such a beautiful granddaughter. You can be proud of your photography work with her. Enjoy every minute you have with her.
My two granddaughters are in their teens now and I wish I had more shots like these😊
Thanks for sharing👍
Beautiful young lady, well photographed!
She is beautiful ! I remember the first picture you posted. What blue eyes!

While there is no specific rule about not posting photos in main unless they’re related to a question or informative post, the fact is that it will eventually be moved to the Photo Gallery. It is kinda the point of having the gallery. I see no problem, and actually see it has helpful, to kindly point out the photo gallery is the right place for photos.
