I don't expect to do well with this photo. It is not particularly interesting to anyone but me. I am as it says a retired Sgt. and I am a Believer.

All I have to say is Thank You. I live in the Delaware Valley and we are all aware of the hard times the Philly police have been through the past few years. My father-in-law is a retired officer from Philly as well.

You're religious, live in NJ and have the badge of a retired sergeant with the family bible...sorry I'm stumped, but guessing you're a woman as the top line has the name Phyllis. 7

The quality in this image is great- you can really see the texture on the badge! Very interesting.

The focus on The Living Bible title distracts me. Good representation.

Very nice image of you. I used to live in Cherry Hill so I know Camden. YIKES!! Like your entry, good luck.

Good idea, but I have a problem with the halo around the badge. The halo takes away from a well composed image.
