    Hey all,
    Voting for Baatfam. Great shot with the rain bouncing off of the ground.
    I feel that image. Rain shower, brightening skies, anticipation.
    Depending on my mood, I've waited for the rain to stop, went out in the rain, or sat in my chair in the garage just admiring my bike and the moment.

      Kerry KF And Glen DB gave quite a chuckle.

      rkroby is quite impressive in several ways. Certainly looking in at the bike(s).

      bob baatfam nice shot of clean shiny bike looking out at rain. Nice reflections on shiny bike. Can see rain splashing. Cant actually see garage, but do quickly realize is in garage looking out.
      vote for baatfam.

        Man, where'd the week go?

        Hard choice this week.

        I love the song from Lonestar that talks about standing on the front porch looking in at your motorcycle in the living room. Well, that's roughly how it goes...

        Voting for rkroby.

          Several good ones but rkroby's looking in shot did it for me this week.
          sigpic2002 KLR650 Ugly but fun!
          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.

              I can confirm Rkroby's win with seven votes.

              Nicely done, excellent photo!
              Stunning look, with no explanation, just the photo doing the talking. Nice!

              What theme do we get this week, Rkroby?

                Thanks for the confirmation, Bob.
                Hey, I second the sentiment from Glen about your shot. It gives a terrific feeling (Glen said it better). I remember that feeling too. Maybe it was a dream, but I'd swear it rained here before.
                Anyway, I liked your pic.

                    Thanks guys. This shot had me thinking about some different options. "Abstract art " or" into the blue" came to mind but so did "nipples". Nipples may have been fun but this weeks theme is "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder". I hope it hasn't been used.

                      Just to verify, the theme is: "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"

                      I like it....
                      And thanks for given us a quick start to our search...

                        Cool theme.
                        Regarding themes, I thought we decided way back that themes / topics would eventually get thin, and reusing some would be acceptable. Personally, I’ve found that no two pictures, even at the same spot and time are ever the same anyway.
