"Forever Friends"

Photo courtesy of Kent Murray.          (Click on the photo for a larger view) Friendship is surely one of God's most precious gifts. Whether it's a secret shared, a story told or a promise made, each and every word spoken between two young friends has the power to strengthen a special bond that can last a lifetime. Although the young gals featured in today's picture might soon forget everything they giggled about on that wonderful day at the lake, they will never forget the closeness they enjoyed as they spent a tiny fraction of their lives in their own little private world. And when it's all said and done, they will most likely be...forever friends. Photographer Kent Murray used the following camera and settings to capture this image: Camera: Nikon D50 Focal length: 60mm Shutter speed: 1/500 second Aperture: f/5.6 ISO: 100   Visitor Comments...
