    Oh, and Steve had the disadvantage of having to limit it to 3 bikes.
    He could have pics of 4 bikes and immediate family members, and other pics of maybe 6 bikes and 8 or so relatives.

      (Cant sleep yet.)

      Theme : Colorful Background.


      Someplace or situation where you saw a colorful situation-scene-thing, and framed the picture to have that in the background, or AS the background (and I dont mean use photoediting software to put something in the background, nor put bike in front of something) (but, I suppose if you are good enough that we can't tell, or maybe other voters don't care).

      My example-submission is fall foliage color of one big maple tree, but your colorful background doesn't have to be fall foliage color. My example-submission is pretty much all the same orange-red color, but yours can be other color or multi colors. Or you interpret "colorful" how ever you want.

      In my pic the tree is on a bit of a hill, the bike is on the edge of the road, I went further down hill, got low, zoomed in to fill frame with the colorful background. Was a slightly overcast day, not a typical for here fall heavy overcast or cloudy, so still a lot of light, but not have to deal with shadows like would on a sunny day. I knew was a good day for photos, then found that tree in a park. Have gone back to that park for other fall color shots in years since.

            Cheers to this great sentence Redman. Your win is the most decisive I recall.

              Wasn't sure whether to put the colors in the sky or on the ground.
              I have a few sunset pics of the Wing in Flori-duh. Decided to keep it local, and with the GS.

                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.

                    I remember getting a little wet on this ride, but the shot I found at the end of the day made it totally worth it.

                        I'm going wide and portrait on a lovely fall day. This was the day I rode the Dragon, so it's probably in the Nantahala National Forest somewhere there in eastern TN.

                              NOT an entry. This old pic came up in my Facebook Memories this morning. This is Me and the Wife not long after we married in 1980. You can see the rear end of my old 76 T500 Suzuki on the Left and the rear end of my 73 Ford Ranger on the Right. The only one I still have is the Wife.
