Pic of the week game

[DaveR]

Voting Day!
A few pics stood out for me. Sandys mountain scene has his signature "look" with colour and composition, always rich and pleasing to the eye. Dorkburgers stutter step image is creative and pops. A whisker ahead is kerrfunks versatile composition with its riot of colours and shapes.

This is a tough one to call this week, but my vote is for Redman.

I like seeing the family theme and 3 sets of bikes, riders, and passengers.

Lots of great pics...but easy for me to choose one that stood out....Rich on the three wheeler!! Love that pic!

Lots of great "threes" this week. I agree with everything DaveR said about the Sandy, kerrfunk, and dorkburger pics. I also like Redman's 3 family shot a lot. But I like Glen's take on the theme, the set-up and composition, and I know that headlight isn't on but it does sort of glow. So dorkburger gets my vote.

Dorkburger has my vote.

[Burque73]

Redman for me. Really like the three sets of three, as mentioned, bikes, riders and passengers.

I have to go with Dave (Redman) for managing to triple up on the three theme.

[kerrfunk]

I'm on the Redman train as well, although I do get a kick out of that 3-wheeler!

Hey, my "short list" isn't so short. At seven, that is about 50%.

I like the way Keerfunks is framed (maybe because for decades I used a mid-tele lens almost exclusively).
Trevor's is an interesting subject scene for a GS fan. Roger Burque is interesting for the "huh, what is that?" factor. Both pics could have featured the main element more specifically.
Jedz is a wider view, but is interesting for the contrast of the bikes verses the big camping units.
Baatfam did feature the main elements, and is also interesting for the contrast but also similarity of the bikes and car.

For voting, I will go with Glen Dorkburger for noticing and arranging for the artistry. (I know, doesn't have "his bike" as the general procedure states, but the specifics for this week does allow "or bike parts".)

PS: And again, let me state my annoyance-displeasure with the situation involving Justin Jedz's departure.

Justin, I respect your decision .... but also would welcome your participation at some point, if you want, maybe reduced participation, maybe after a while.

I have to go with Redman's "It's a Family Affair" photo. That photo is definitely a keeper.

Also Jedz, I've always enjoyed our posts about your photos as well as your trips and adventures and feel you are a valuable asset to this site, you will be missed by quite a few. It's too bad that the negativity often found lately is responsible for the loss of another valuable member. Seems to be a race to the bottom lately. I know you have a busy, interesting and productive life and this crap is just getting in the way so all the best to you and please pop in once in while and let us know what's up.

Voting for Kerrfunk. I liked it last time around, I'm voting for it this time

[cowboyup3371]

I'll vote for Burque's only because I enjoyed looking at that guy every year when I lived there

Rich82 on the Three Wheeler gets my vote! Crazy kid! 🌞

Sandy and Trevor can tell you that I am a bit of a strange duck, so sometimes my taste goes to the eclectic. In that stead my vote this week goes to Burque73.

Saturday, Well, 1am Pacific time, 4 am Eastern here.
Woke up and cant get back to sleep, so I will do the tally (count votes instead of sheep, har har)

Keerfunk 2, Me Redman 5, Rich 2, Dorkburger 3, Burque 2

Thanks guys.

Yes, that is a memorable picture for me, but I didn't think it was that good of a photograph, as far as photos go.
Kerry's is much more interesting, Rich's much more adventurous, Glen's much more artistic, and Roger's more unique, Jedz's tells more of a story, Sandy's much more of a pretty scene, Trevor's much more interesting relative to GSes, Bob's much more interesting with the compare-contrast grouping, Steve's more significant of a big trip-adventure.
I did have a few shots to choose from of different occasions of three bikes over the year (between my 650G, 850G, Shadow500, 1100GK, sons SV650, Tiger1050 at various times). Some of those pics had just the bikes, some had three people, or 4 people or 5 people. But I choose that shot cuz seemed the best lighting, less distracting background, bikes more evenly spaced-positioned, and was 3 couples.

Okay, am yawning now. (maybe you too after all that yacking).

I dont have any picture nor any subject-theme-category in mind at present. Have some things going on this morning, but will see what I can think up by early-mid afternoon. Will try to think of some theme or category. Thanks again.
