    Dorkburger's picture is fantastic but I just don't see the theme unless I read a back story. Fantastic photography though.

    im going to vote for Eli69​ because it reminds me of fall, the crunch of leaves on the ground, the cold air hitting your face, laced with a hint of smoke from a wood fire, the oaks still holding on to their brown leaves. The world slowly going to sleep before a long winters nap...

    Cheers,

      Dorkburger for getting sober.

      Here's hoping you don't 'FALL' off the wagon!

          Living in something of a tourist town/area, I do recognize the situation Gen Dorkburger mentioned about his picture.

          CarterT, ah, I see, the result of a fall.

          For voting for the theme, I'll vote for Jedz.
          When the bike went into the rut I stepped off LOL.

          2001 KLR650 too pretty to get dirty

          Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

            Hey all,
            Voting for Jedz. Fits the theme perfectly and beautifully.

            As photography geek, I do love Bob's pic. The selective focus, dreamy background with a hint of fall color, and the green neutral light in the middle.

              Saturday Morning
              (30degF here)

              My counting:

              Rich 1, Redman 2, Dorkbgr 3,
              Eli 1, CarterT 1, Jedz 4

              Someone can verify, but I count Mr Justin Jedz with a narrow lead. The last vote breaking the tie that existed at 3-3.

              So, just guessing, but maybe after Jedz has his 100mile ride to work (20 miles) in freezing temperature ...................

                Agreed, winner is Jedz123 with 4. Dorkburger has 2. If you only count 1 of Rob S.’ votes.

                  Thanks Rich.
                  yah, my counting methodology would not catch that (and my memory certainly will not either). Your spreadsheet would, the way you organized it. Thanks.

                  PS: I have email alerted Mr Justin Jedz of his win.

                          I don't have any drive in photos, can it be an old restaurant? If not, no worries.

                          Recovering from hacking off bone spur on heel/achilles surgery, so can't ride yet.
                          It's been 28 days & have to wear the dreaded plastic boot for 6 weeks.
